Question on working with offset bone characters

object22 · Post by **object22** » Fri Dec 10, 2004 6:41 pm

I have my character broken apart at frame 0, i have used offset bone to pull it back together. I am needing to make changes to some of the lines where they intersect (using the hide edge tool)- the problem is once i change away from the bone layer the character breaks back apart and i cant see exactly where the lines intersect. How do you get the character to stay together so you can use the other tools? I know i can goto frame 1 and make the changes but that doesnt seem to be the right way.

Thanks in advance for any help

There is no option to keep the character "snapped together". It snaps together automatically when either the Offset Bone or Manipulate Bones tools are active. Or, of course, when you're at a frame other than 0.

In this case, the best option probably is to go to frame 1 and make the changes there.
