Okay, I need a perplexing question answered. There is a model of a dragonfly that comes with RD5.02, I jumped into the free form modeler for the the Dragonflyies leg. The leg is a single freeform model. Is there a way to break apart the leg so I can apply IK to it, without having to remodel it? In other words, I want to be able to have an upper leg and a lower leg. I could remodel it but I'm hoping for a minor miricle. Thanks, dp

Open it in meshform and break it apart.

Or: Jump into FFM, add a control point where you want to seperate the leg. Then highlite that point and "create cross section". Then jump out into scene and "duplicte" leg, name one upper leg & rename other one lower leg. Then "jump-in" on each one (create new master), highlite the cross sections that don't belong with the name and "disconect from next cross section" in the options window. The advantage here is not having to rebuild parts in the MFM and you still retain the FreeForm model. Once you convert to the mesh model you can't go back. Try it on a simple cube first.

Thanks Grimpup, thanks Willf. I will give it a try. :)
