Relations panel.

In this panel you can arrange sets of bones in different layers for easier manipulation.

Bone Layers

Moving Bones between Layers

Obviously, you have to be in Edit Mode or Pose Mode to move bones between layers. Note that as with objects, bones can lay in several layers at once, just use the usual Shift-LMB clicks... First of all, you have to select the chosen bone(s)!

  • In the Properties, use the "layer buttons" of each selected bone Relations panel (Bones tab) to control in which layer(s) it lays.

  • In the 3D Viewport, use the menu Armature ‣ Move Bone To Layer or Pose ‣ Move Bone To Layer or press M to show the usual pop-up layers menu. Note that this way, you assign the same layers to all selected bones.

Parenting (Phụ Huynh Hóa)

Parent (Phụ Huynh)

A ID Dữ Liệu (Data ID) to select the bone to set as a parent.

Phụ Huynh Hóa Tương Đối Duy Chế Độ Tư Thế (Pose Mode Only)

Changes how transformation of the bone is applied to its child Objects.

Bone Group Pose Mode Only

To assign a selected bone to a given bone group use the Bone Group data ID.

Kết Nối (Connected)

The Connected checkbox set the head of the bone to be connected with its parent root.

Biến Hóa (Transformations)

Bones relationships have effects on transformations behavior.

By default, children bones inherit:

  • Their parent position, with their own offset of course.

  • Their parent rotation (i.e. they keep a constant rotation relatively to their parent).

  • Their parent scale, here again with their own offset.

Rotation of a root bone.

Scaling of a root bone.

Exactly like standard children objects. You can modify this behavior on a per-bone basis, using the Relations panel in the Bones tab:

Vị Trí Cục Bộ (Local Location)

When disabled, the location transform property is evaluated in the parent bone's local space, rather than using the bone's own rest pose local space orientation.

Thừa Kế Xoay Chiều (Inherit Rotation)

When disabled, this will "break" the rotation relationship to the bone's parent. This means that the child will keep its rotation in the armature object space when its parent is rotated.

Thừa Kế Tỷ Lệ (Inherit Scale)

Specifies which effects of parent scaling the bone inherits:

Toàn Phần (Full):

The bone inherits all effects of parent scaling and shear.

Sửa Xô Lệch (Fix Shear):

Full parent effects are applied to the rest state of the child, after which any shear is removed in a way that preserves the bone direction, length and volume, and minimally affects roll on average. The result is combined with the local transformation of the child.

If the inherited scale is non-uniform, this does not prevent shear from reappearing due to local rotation of the child bone, or of its children.

Thẳng Hàng (Aligned):

Parent scaling is inherited as if the child was oriented the same as the parent, always applying parent X scale over child X scale, and so on.

Trung Bình/Hóa:

Inherits a uniform scaling factor that is the total change in the volume of the parent.

Không (None):

Ignores all scaling and shear of the parent.

Không [Lỗi Thời] (None [Legacy]):

Ignores all scaling, provided the parent is not sheared. If it is, there are no guarantees.

This choice replicates the behavior of the old Inherit Scale checkbox, and may be removed in a future release.

These inheriting behaviors propagate along the bones' hierarchy. So when you scale down a bone, all its descendants are by default scaled down accordingly. However, if you disable one bone's Inherit Scale or Inherit Rotation property in this "family", this will break the scaling propagation, i.e. this bone and all its descendants will no longer be affected when you scale one of its ancestors.

Mẹo

The various Inherit Scale options are provided as tools in avoiding shear that is caused by non-uniform scaling combined with parenting and rotation. There is no obvious best way to achieve that, so different options are useful for different situations.

Không (None)

Useful for gaining full control over the scaling of the child in order to e.g. manually overwrite it with constraints.

Trung Bình/Hóa

Useful to block squash and stretch propagation between sub-rigs, while allowing uniform changes in the size and volume to pass through.

Thẳng Hàng (Aligned)

Can be used within bone chains, e.g. tentacles, in order to propagate lengthwise scaling as lengthwise, and sideways as sideways, no matter how the tentacle bends. Similar to using None with Copy Scale from parent.

Sửa Xô Lệch (Fix Shear)

May be useful at the base of an appendage in order to reallocate squash and stretch between axes based on the difference in rest pose orientations of the parent and child. It behaves closest to Full while suppressing shear.

Connected bones have another specificity: they cannot be moved. Indeed, as their root must be at their parent's tip, if you do not move the parent, you cannot move the child's root, but only its tip, which leads to a child rotation. This is exactly what happens, when you press G with a connected bone selected, Blender automatically switches to rotation operation.

Bones relationships also have important consequences on how selections of multiple bones behave when transformed. There are many different situations which may not be included on this list, however, this should give a good idea of the problem:

  • Non-related selected bones are transformed independently, as usual.

  • When several bones of the same "family" are selected, only the "most parent" ones are really transformed -- the descendants are just handled through the parent relationship process, as if they were not selected (see Fig. Scaling bones, some of them related. the third tip bone, outlined in yellow, was only scaled down through the parent relationship, exactly as the unselected ones, even though it is selected and active. Otherwise, it should have been twice smaller!)

    ../../../../_images/animation_armatures_bones_properties_relations_scale-related.png

    Scaling bones, some of them related.

  • When connected and unconnected bones are selected, and you start a move operation, only the unconnected bones are affected.

  • When a child connected hinge bone is in the selection, and the "most parent" selected one is connected, when you press G, nothing happens, because Blender remains in move operation, which of course has no effect on a connected bone.

So, when posing a chain of bones, you should always edit its elements from the root bone to the tip bone. This process is known as Forward Kinematics (FK). We will see in a later page that Blender features another pose method, called Inverse Kinematics (IK), which allows you to pose a whole chain just by moving its tip.
