Constrain bones to vertices

[rebar]

This may seem like a strange question. I'd really like to be able to constrain a bone to a vertex. Is there a way to do this?

One way of doing it is by creating a cluster from the vertices you want to constrain:
1. select the vertex/vertices you want
2. go to animation>deform>create cluster
3. select the cluster, shift-select the joint you want and constrain>point

That should do it.

don't forget to switch on the "relative" option so that the clusters move with the object.

?

might as well just use a locator!
(unless you happened to want to be explicitly animating that single pnt w a cluster)
