Copying bones problem

[studiosjj]

Hi All,

I'm pretty much a newbie in regards to Anime Studio/Moho, I've only really put my head into over the last week or so. I'm having a real issue with bones. I'm creating a side view of a quadruped character, i've done the artwork in illustrator and imported and an .svg reorganized and named layers. I created a bones layer and placed in the main character structure I've then created the front legs and wanted to duplicate them to create the rear legs. I've been trying to copy and paste them to no avail, the copied and moved versions just disappear? I don't have them linked to the core body structure, i just really don't know what i'm doing wrong? Is there a procedure to follow when copying bones?

First, you could take a look at Victor's excellent webinar on this:
Rigging a Quadruped Webinar
It's over an hour long, so get a cup of coffee and a biscuit ready!

I've never bothered much with copying and pasting bones -- it's so quick to do I just do it twice!
