does anyone know how to reset the local rotation axis on a joint if it's been "orient joint" or otherwise manipulated? I'm trying to find a way to script this in. Basically, I want it to match the view axis ( Y to point up, z to point front, x to point side)

if you want to reset (in fact freeze) use freeze transforms with joint orient oprtion. the command used on the root joint is:
makeIdentity -apply true -jointOrient joint1;
