基础

The single-bone rig types must be applied separately to every bone even within a connected chain, and can have connected children controlled by a different rig type. This is unlike chain-based rig types that usually consume the whole connected chain.

Copies the bone chain keeping all the parent relations within the chain untouched. Useful as a utility rig type for custom rigs.

Requirement: A chain of at least two connected bones.

Control (Boolean)

When enabled control bones and widgets will be created.

Deform (Boolean)

When enabled deform bones will be created.

Single-bone rig type that creates a ‘custom pivot’ control for rotating and scaling its child sub-rigs.

This type of control transforms its children when rotated or scaled, while moving it merely changes the pivot point used by rotation or scaling.

Master Control

When enabled an extra parent control bone with a box widget is created to allow moving the rig. It is also required by all other options besides Deform Bone.

Switchable Parent

Generates a mechanism for switching the effective parent of the rig based on the value of a custom property.

Register Parent

• Tags

  Specifies additional comma-separated tag keywords for the registered parent scope. They can be used by other rigs to filter parent choices, or for selecting the default parent.

  Some of the existing tags that are useful here:

Pivot Control

Disabling this avoids generating the actual custom pivot control, effectively turning this rig type into a version of with parent switching support and a different widget.

Deform Bone

When enabled a deform bone will be created.

Single-bone rig type that copies the bone without the ORG- name prefix.

Normally all bones copied from the meta-rig are prefixed with ORG- and placed on an invisible layer. This precludes their use as controls or deforming bones, which makes it difficult to transfer complex fully custom rigging verbatim from the meta-rig.

Relink Constraints

Allows retargeting constraints belonging to the bone to point at bones created in the process of generating the rig, thus allowing custom rigging to integrate with generated bones.

To use this feature, add @ and the intended target bone name to the constraint name, resulting in the ...@bone_name syntax. After all bones of the rig are generated, the constraint target bone will be replaced. If the new bone name is just CTRL, or DEF, this will just replace the ORG prefix in the existing target bone name. For the Armature constraint you can add a @ suffix for each target, or just one @CTRL, @MCH or @DEF suffix to update all.

• Parent

  If the field is not empty, applies the same name substitution logic to the parent of the bone.

When this feature is enabled, the bone will not be automatically parented to the root bone even if it has no parent; enter root in the Parent field if that is necessary.

Single-bone rig type that simply copies the bone. Useful as utility rig type for adding custom features or specific deform bones to your rigs.

Control (Boolean)

When enabled a control bone and widget will be created.

Widget (Boolean)

When enabled a circle widget will be created in replacement to the standard.

Deform (Boolean)

When enabled a deform bone will be created.
