B-Bone segmenting problem

[c 4]

Does it look the same if you change to Object Mode ?

What happens if you rotate the bone(in pose mode)? :p

it doesn't look segmented either in Object Mode. here's a screenshot of it in object mode:

when i rotate the bone? it just rotates one segment of the bone, like in the screenshot below. =\
really sucks when finding out something cool and you can't execute it. if i manage to segment the bones, it would be really great to apply a stretchy ik to the character's limbs. i know, i can just add more joints, but segmenting looks better, based on the tutorial video i saw.

any help would be really appreciated :)

You're rotating the bone in Edit Mode.

As fktt said: Try rotate them in POSE MODE.

(Hotkey: CTRL+TAB >> alternates between Object Mode and Pose Mode when you're working with a armature).

oops, my bad! now all those segments finally appear and they work. silly how little things like that can create all the fuss and problems :beer: thanks!

B-bones do not work that way, you need to turn up the number of segemtns in the bone's properties then you will have your bendy bones
