problem with link bug maybe

[Dichotomy]

what software are you using? and what links are you using? there are numerous ways to link controls to joints. Just need a little more detailed description of how you are setting things up to really be able to figure out the problem.

The objects are mostly likely skewing because you scaled the object you parented the children to.

i`m using max 9 / 2008
i meant parent & childern
like i said before i get the skew in any "object" children in the scene parented to any other object

i did`nt scale the parent i`m sure
i tried to freeze transformation but i didn`t make it
thanx

Nonuniform scaling of the objects as you model them can cause this. If you set your coordinate system to World, and right click the scale tool you should be able to check if you have nonuniform scaling somewhere in the geometry (e.g. x 53%, y 100%, z 100%). To get rid of it, select the culprit geometry and go to Utilites panel > Reset XForm > Reset Selected. (You probably will have to unlink it first, do it, then relink it).
