How do you lock the feet and bend at the knees?
I can't find a way to bend the knees where the character will bend completely like a crouch position. Even after IK Setup wizard is setup. You would think this would be the most basic thing rigged. Something must be missing? I have the Pro version.
Answer
Hi Zizzy,
thank you very much for your support request.
- Select the IK Handle of a foot
- Under the "Channels" section of the Pose Editor, set the tick mark at IK Pinning
- The foot now stays in place when you drag the hips of your character around.
For more information, please follow the IK Pinning video tutorial:

IK Pinning uses the Child-Of constraint under the hood. You should also watch the video tutorial of the child-of constraint, as there are some special cases you should be aware of:

Please let me know in case you have any follow-up questions.
Best regards,

Thanks, that is what it was. I was afraid it was due to the hips and spines not being blue/no ik setup.
