Hi,

I am still trying to understand the difference between WorldDisplacement() and xTran, yTran, zTran for the hip. I have an animation with 59 frames. WorldDisplacement() matches xTran, yTran, zTran for the first 20 frames. Here is the 20th frame:

Note that the 20th frame from Poser should be compared to the 19th frame in the text box. You can see that the xTran, yTran, zTran values match with the WorldDisplacement() print out. This is the case for the first 20 frames.

Now, if I go to the 21st frame, they begin to disagree:

Please compare the Poser dials with the 20th frame in the text box.

I am having a really difficult time wrapping my head around why there is such a disagreement. Is there a way to visualize the global origin and global X Y Z in Poser?
