MR Select Child Bones

Post by KuzKuz »

This script allows you to select the child bones of the selected bones.
If you run it twice, it will also select the targets of the selected bones, if they exist.

Neat! I can use this. Thank you for creating and sharing this, Eugene! :D

Update: I just tried it, and yes, it will be useful for a character I'm animating right now.

Hi Eugene!

I wanted to let you know MR Select Child Bones has been even more useful than I imagined! It's been especially useful for selecting all the bones in a tail setup, something that's always been tricky to select previously whenever the tail is crossing other bones in the skeleton.

Also, using this tool a lot as intended, that is, for moving a leg chain with its target. This was incredibly useful yesterday while animating a character spinning 720 degrees in the air. (You'll be able to see the animation on our channel tomorrow.)

Thanks again for creating and sharing it!
