Turning Aim Constraint On/off

[istar47]

I'm having a bit of trouble with an assignment for a class of mine. I have an object circling around a character's head and I want to have the character's head to follow the object. I know that I can put in an Aim Constraint, but I don't know if you can toggle it on and off. Is there a way, and if there is, how?

in the channel box of the object that has been constrained you will notice below it some extra channels that are created for the constraint. if you set the value to zero then the constrained object will no longer follow. However the rotation channels are still being controlled so you need to either have a seperate node below the node being constrained so that you can keyframe rotation on it or have a second node that the constrained node is also being controlled and setting it to a value of 1. when the other constraint is set to zero.

Awesome, thanks for the info, it really helps!
