Jonas; >> Please review the following file for some possibly additional insights >> to several different methods of IK approaches.. >> File Info for FLIP.ZIP Thanks for the tip Jonas! I looked at this file, and at first couldn't figure out what was wrong. I had my Heir* links set up correctly. I had a path just as you did. But when I did a "Recalculate" on yours, it did not have an (ill formed chain) like mine did. So I experimented with the chain. I had a dummy possibly lower in the heir* than it should be, so I deleted mine, and made a new one. I also experimented with "Joints" and "solve for orientation" more, and between these items, was able to get it to work. I didn't really know if "IK" could allow me to do what I needed, but this is EXACTLY what I needed for the animation I am doing now. I have four (3 object each) arms that all need to move together. This will really make my life easier. Thanks so much! Dennis
