is there anything, maybe a setting or a switch or something in MAX5 that would prevent the Select and Link function from working?

I am working on an IK setup, and when I link the IK goals to the point helpers and try to move them, I get nothing...only the the helpers move

so I tried a much simpler setup of linking a simple box to another to test it and the same thing happens...

I click select and link and link the child to the parent, I should be able to move and rotate the parent and affect the child...but thats not happening....the parent just rotates alone after I try to link.

I know I am linking it correctly, I just dont know why it isnt working...any help?

Nevermind...as usually happens when you mess with it long enough, I managed to solve my own question...

beware the DONT AFFECT CHILDREN button in the Hierarchy panel >

accidentally had it clicked...
wonder how that happened.:rolleyes:
