Cant click on bones
Hi. I cant seem to figure out why I cant select some of the bones in my model. I have set inverse kinamatic handles on both hands. Toggling IK or FK or BOTH buttons doesnt seem to enable me to select the bones. The non selectable bones seem to be just random ones. Not sure if this is a bug or have I forgotten to do something ? I can select them from the clip editor, though I have to search for each one for 5 mins till I find exactly the name I want...

Hi,
thank you very much for your support request.
Please update your UMotion version to the latest from the store (latest at the time of writing is V1.26p03) to see if that solves your issue.
Does it also not work, in case you create a fresh UMotion project and keep the rendering style of the bones unchanged? Maybe the problem is related to some of the specific visualization settings you are using.
You can also try to create a fresh Unity project, then copy & paste your character and it's UMotion project file (*.asset) into the fresh Unity project. Does selecting work in there? If not, may I ask you to send me this fresh Unity project so that I can do some further debugging? You can send it to me via the email support form (or request a link to my dropbox via email if the size is too big).
If it does work in the fresh Unity project, then there might be some editor extension or script that conflicts with the selecting process in your Unity project. In that case duplicating the whole project and then deleting other assets step by step is the best process to identify the root cause.
Best regards,
Peter
Hi, thanks for the help.
I updated to the latest Umotion, but that didnt solve it. However creating a new umotion project did solve it. As you said probably there was some option from the old one that was messing with the selection. Hopefully it wont happen again.
Though now I have another problem. I want to import the animation clip I made in the old project, into the new one. I did that though for some reason I have keypoints on every frame rather than on just the ones that the character is moving. Do you maybe know how can I fix that ?

Import the UMotion project (*.asset) file instead of the *.anim file.
Please let me know in case you have any follow-up questions.

I'm glad that worked for you. Don't hesitate to contact me in case you need any further help.

I figured it out !!! SO the problem was that there was a collider from another object messing with the selection. If collider is in front or around the bone, then you cant select it.
Man that was supper annoying, but finally figured it out. Hopefully it helps someone in the future who has the same problem.
