Remove scale node

[verk]

Here is my situation, I want to scale a character, then I want to remove the scale node and have the nodes below it inherit the scale.....Is it possible? remove a node from the top of a hiarchy and have nodes below retain that info?

Sure, go modify->freeze transformations on the group-node before you ungroup, they'll listen to that...

I forgot to mention the Character has animation.

um, I just tried what you describe, and all I had to do is grab the top group node the one used to scale and ungroup it, the scale remained on the underlying geometry...
Edit>Ungroup, it's that easy... tested it with animation under it as well... even on joints...
-hope this helps..

yes,
group the skeleton to itself,
scale that to the correct size,
ungroup,
the nodes below will inherit the scale,

although I usually have to have everything at a scale of 1... it has intrigued me why you would want the inherited scale ??

-well, verk has animation on it and when he scales his character he needs to keep the animation scaled as well..
-by freezing transforms, or deleting history.. it all falls apart...
