Hi,

I am a beginner trying to create a "simple" animation where I would like to have the Hand and Forearm locked in position while moving the hip up and down using IK. 
Since the goal of the IK (default) is set to the Hand (the last item in the chain) the forearm keeps moving.

- I tried to remove the hand from the skeleton but it always deleted the figure.

- I tried to parent the hand to another body part which caused Poser to crash.

- I tried to animate it and remove the keyframes for arm and hand just resulting in weird movements.

I really would appreciate any hints on what I am doing wrong, or if it is even possible with Poser?

kind regards
