HyperNURBS Weight

This tag stores weighting information. It is created automatically when you weight a HyperNURBS.

You can use this tag to set an IK target that the IK chain will try to reach. In the following example we

created four nulls — one for each hand and each foot. We then placed the foot nulls on the oor and

the hand nulls on the bar and assigned these nulls to IK tags. When we moved the gure’s body, the

hands and feet remained in position.

When the IK tag is selected, you’ll nd a Target Object box on the Attribute manager’s Tag page. To

choose which object the IK expression should try to reach (called the ‘target’), drag the name of the

target from the Object manager and drop it onto the Target Object box.
