Joint and bone sizes in XSI skeletons. How?

[aaronsaluk]

I apologize already for my lame question, i tried some way with no success, tweaking with ChildCompensation and searching in google. Would be possible, after assigned an envelope or anyway after have built a whole skeleton, to modify the size ( in term of width, nothing related with the bone lenght feature in the Chain Bone property editor ) all the bones are visualized to. I was looking for some function like the Joint Size in Maya, to display directly all the bones 50%-25%-... of the original lenght. Any alternative to the bone shadow icons ?

Thanks.

If you open the bone ppg and go in the Chain Bone tab, you can see that most of the ppg is used by a section called Shadow Bone Display. So set the Bone Display menu to None, and choose a bone display type in the Shadow Bone Display menu. Now you have access to all kinds of shapes for your bones.

Alright thank you, although i have to modify all bones one at the time in this way, or using some script ... i thought there was some command acting directly on all the bones ala Maya. Thanks.

Multi-select the bones, hit Enter, then modify the settings in the ppg, it should affect all the selected bones.

I have to select the roots and effectors separately, but it works well, thanks.
