USAGE TIPS:

Although there are pre-assembled objects available that can be loaded into the scene, it is advisable not to try and fit the figure to the object or object as a whole to the figure.  

As an example, do the following: For the "IRONS_LA".  After loading the irons, un-parent the chain from the "Cuffs".  Position the cuffs on the figure, pose the chain, then parent the cuffs to the chain.  It can get quite frustrating seeing the cuffs flying around while you are posing the chain.  ALWAYS POSE THE CHAIN UN-PARENTED TO OTHER OBJECTS.

The "CHAIN" loads as a ten link figure with all links an individual joint.  The first link "Link_CT" is the parent link With the descending nine links numbered accordingly. (Link_CT_1, Link_CT_2, etc. to Link_CT_9).  

If you load another chain object to lengthen the chain, it is advisable to pose this second chain before parenting to the chain you wish to lengthen.  This will avoid the prior chain links being thrown out of the pose you just created. 

When you parent the new chain to the first, the Hierarchy will automatically be updated with the first link of the new chain being re-named Link_CT_10 and parented links numbered consecutively to "Link_CT_19.  "LINK_CT" OF THE FIRST CHAIN WILL STILL BE THE PARENT LINK.

SCALING THE CHAIN:- Select the parent link "LINK_CT", in "Parameters" select "Body", then "Scale".  If you do not do this, the links will fly off in all directions destroying your pose.



THE CUFFS:  The cuffs open and close with the "CUFF_CD" Being the parent.  To scale the cuffs, select "CUFF_CD", Select "Body" in Parameters, then scale.  If you do not do this, the cuff parts will fly off in all directions.

To "OPEN and Close the Cuffs, click on "Cuffs_CR" or Cuffs_CL"  and use "Open-Close" in "Parameter Dials".

When using "CUFFS" with the chain, Parent the Link_CT" Link to one cuff (as an example-Right hand) the cuff being the parent, and the other hand, (Left Hand) to the last link of the chain.  The left hand cuff will be the child of the last link of the chain.



THE PADLOCK:  The padlock "LATCH" opens and closes with the "POADLOCK" being the parent.  To open the latch, click on the latch and use the "OPEN-Close" Parameter "Dial.  To "SCALE" the padlock, click on the padlock body, select "Body" in Parameters, then scale.  lf you do not do this, the parts will fly off in all directionss.
