Hi guys,
I`m wondering if its possible to do that. I have a locator wich is a driver in a driven key, and i need to copy it, and preserve the output connections.

umm, I'm not sure, but try checking the "Duplicate Input Connections" in the duplicate options

It would be possible to do it by hand, making the connections manually, but depending on what kind of output connections there are. For a locator that is a driver, I would think this wouldn't work too well, as whatever nodes the set driven key uses will only allow for one input, not multiple ones from different nodes.

Perhaps if you explain a bit better what you are attempting to do I might be able to give you a hand. :)

Hmm.

It's meaningless to duplicate the output connections.

An attribute can only be driven by one other attribute. If you duplicated the output connections you'd have two output attributes trying to drive the same input.

Or do you want a weighted average of the two inputs? In this case you'd need to make a plusMinusAverage node and do a bunch of connecting, most easily with MEL.

P.S. Sorry, didn't mean to duplicate the same answer as the previous poster. Oops!
