Hi guys,

I completely understand the rigging and and construction of a chain set, that's not a problem at all.  The problem is that currently only right and left side pose symmetry is allowed in poser.  This was to make rigging a figure easier so that the pose symmetry, including joint parameters could be mirrored to the other side of a human figure.  However, when you move away from humans and say into robots, or equipment with cords and chains, having symmetry mirrored from front to back is not possible, or not that I know of.  The closes I've come is rigging a figure right to left then rotating it's base 90 degrees along the y axis. This is okay, but not ideal if  front to back symmetry was just available.
