Quick heads-up: I found that when I use "zero figure" on Dawn 2, it turns off the JCMs. Her joints don't all look great even with JCMs, but that's what dynamic clothes are for. :grin: Anyway, I think she's looking quite good overall and has a lot of neat features built in from the get-go. :thumbsup:

Hm. Well considering that a JCM, functioning as it should, is only "on" (value beyond zero up to 1 typically) as the result of a rotation beyond 0 degrees (a morph dependency attached to a joint rotation) naturally the JCMs will be at a zero state when the figure is zero in all rotations. If you mean that zeroing the figure causes a joint dependant morph subtract value operation to kick on and stay in an on state from there forward... well major bug there.

Am I misunderstanding? I haven't really looked at the figure yet.

There's a control parameter for turning all JCMs on or off. Zero figure sets that to off.

If the dependencies had been set up as 1 jcm off - 0 jcm on, I don't see why that would happen. I create those kind of switches all the time, you can then just create a global master to drive all the individual OFFs. Zero figure has no bearing on such a set up. Though La Femme has a different sort of solution, some clever dial gymnastics in there, IIRC it's an always 1 state, foregoing the individual dials, elegant... Been awhile since I looked at it. There must be a reason that it's set up in such a way but without seeing it I won't venture to guess. I'll get around to looking eventually, though I won't bother with this line of enquiry about Dawn's dials further and especially any unfortunate robot yoga shenanigans forthwith.

So my JCM OFFs are thusly...

The internals of such a thing example...

Apologies for the perceived Hijack Snafu, and the OT about Dawn Dial Mysteries...
