Anywone ever try to animate an object's pivot point during rotational animation? I'm popping all over the place. What I wanted was a foot control that was able to switch it's pivot from heel to toe. The one I came up with only works without keys set on it. I wanted it on one control, because I want what I want. (which is probably why I 'm stuck) I didn't want to get a big hierchy going on down there, 'cause It does not need to be that complicated.. Or does it?

Yeah.. I think so.. Rerooting joints for a heel toe rotation right?

I looked up a tutorial and I'll test it out when I get back.. Thanks
