I have a Custom Attribute holder on a control object for the foot of my character. When I move the control object it controls the IK and the Foot Roll is controlled by a Custom Attribute in the Attribute holder. The roll is wired to the attribute as normal.

However when I key the attribute for animation it seems like the wiring in not animating allthough the attribute value is changing of the time of the key.

Tis totally frustrating does anyone know what is causing this.

thanks

the wiring is not animating and not allowing changes when the Animate button is enabled.

I just reread the first post here is a more detailed descript of what is happening. I will attach the file that I am working with aswell so you can see what is happening.

Hey all I have noticed a nasty problem I need some help with.

I have the Custom Attribute holder Modifier on a Shape that I am using as a control object for Arms, Legs etc. The wired parameters are just rotation expressions for fingers and foot roll etc.

The wiring works fine when I change the value in the spinner. The problem occurs when I try to key animation for the attribute. I set a start and end key but then all the wiring ceases to funtion. The spinner value changes and is keyed but wiring stays at the first set pose.

When I turn animate off and delete the keys the wiring works again.

What is causing this problem. Thanks in advance to those that help
