Using the Edit Pose Panel (New for v1.5)

iClone Character Creator meets the highest standards of human bone structure and motion editing systems. Using HumanIK as the core character engine allows your 3D characters to now have automatic floor contact while the intuitive real-time IK motion control keeps a proper body balance. By using the Edit Pose panel, you may then take the advantage of the HumanIK and create custom pose of all body parts of a character.

2. Execute the Edit >> Edit Pose command to open the Edit Pose panel (shortcut key: N).
   
3. Select an effector point from the left dummy pane.
4. Use the tool to move the body part with gizmo.
