IK handle problem : pivot point moves NOT handle

[mutiny33]

Hello I am setting up an arm IK arm like alex alvarez in kinematics 4 - or this tutorial http://www.3dgate.com/techniques/000605/0605maya\_arm1.html

I have an arms with a shoulder joint, elbow, forearm, wrist and fingers. I connected an RP handle from the shoulder to the forearm bone. Then I choose the end effector in the hypergraph and move its pivot point to the wrist joint.

The problem the IK handle is still located at the forearm joint. Any tips? I am running Maya 5.0

Hi.
Select the end effector in the Hyper graph.
Select the move tool and press the insert key to enter the pivot mode.
Snap the effector to the wrist joint by pressing the v key.
The IK handle moves with the end effector.
That works for me.
Sorry I have no idea why that doesn't work for you.

Are you running Maya 5.0? I opened up Maya 4.0 everything worked fine. My guess is that its a bug in 5.0

Hi.
I am running Maya 5.01.
Probably the IK FK Control check box is on
under the IK Solver Attriutes tab in the Attribute editor.
Check this off or you can upgrade to Maya 5.01.
It's free!

I tried enabling the IK FK Control on Maya 5.01.
It works for me again.

I am terribly sorry.
That probrem seems to have nothing to do with the IK FK Control.
I still don't know why.
