Subject: Body bends when you lift arm

Hello

I am still slugging away at the rotoscoping with Poser and I have another set of problems..

When I raise the arm the body bends away from it..how do I turn this off?

2.  Plus how long is a blink or a smile or do I just do what looks right to me?

Thank you.

turn off IK. blinks are about once every 5-10 seconds, lasting 2 frames max. smiles are forever, everybody should have one (no, just kidding, it's up to you).

Go to "Figure->Use Inverse Kinematics" and click it.
You'll get a pop-up list. If either (or both) of the arms are checked, click on it to turn IK off. (If both are checked, you'll have to go through the whole prcess again to turn the other one off..)
Also, check that you don't have "Figure->Autobalance" turned on...that can also have a similar effect..

How are you changing the position of the arm? If you're using the mouse "drag/pull/twist" in the preview screen, you can get undesirable effects. I always find it easier and better to use the dials in the "Properties" palette... - but that's just my opinion..

Cheers,
Diolma
