Hello, I'm missing above method inside PPro 2014. Idea behind: When you use a pose from the pose library for a figure, the pose will affect all body parts of the selected one, as it is defined by the pose. Sometimes it is nice to exclude some body parts from the pose. After using menu function Object:LockObject only the body parts are affected then, which are unlocked before. In case of RightArm you mostly need to lock all body parts below either, which are children of RightArm, i.e. RightIndex3 and others. I wanted to solve this with a PP-script, which resursively locks all children of selected body part additonally. But no method - no change... An alternative solution would be to save all values of RightArm, before the pose is applied and restore them after. But I guess, my first idea is easier. Is this possible w/ PPro 11, which I purchased but had no time to install until yet ? Any other clues ? TIA

This option is provided in the Poser Tool Box. http://www.philc.net/PTB_page2.php#figureUtilities
It is effected by writing then applying a pose file to lock the actor.

THX PhilC, found it at "(Un)Lock-Me + Children". You described the function for selected Hip-actor: Could you confirm, that "Me" means any selected body part of a figure, not Hip only ?

Me = currently selected body part.
