I have also wondered about this. I see there is a bindPose node but altering the contents of that appears to make little difference, and having to re-skin to change the bind pose seems like a very heavy handed approach to what *should* simply be a data change. Does anyone know if this is something that is by design or just a very old bug that has never been high enough priority to fix?

If I know there's a frame that has all the joints in the pose I want, is there a good way to blow away all dagposes and make a new bindpose for all joints in a hierarchy? What are the ramifications of this? -- CE -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python Programming for Autodesk Maya" group.
