Funny, turning to shaded mode resolved the issues...at least I have seen what 
am I doing :D unfortunately I can't key it, so I'm still looking for a 
solution...

Yeah, your best bet is probably just reading the Plugin script - as I say it 
looks well commented so you can always just recreate what he's doing yourself.

I remember seeing a tutorial ages ago.... 

...and after a bit of digging it looks like it was 'PoseBalls' by Mike 
Malinowski (twas 3D world 136, apparently). Looks like he's got a version of it 
up on http://www.softmonkey.org/ . Looks like he's been a good chap and 
commented it all pretty well.

I can't say I've had any luck with the multiple constraints with slider method, 
personally. Whichever way round I try the half-arsed Softimage evaluation 
doesn't like it. Maybe there's a special order/technique for it which eluded 
me. I can't say I trust the Pivot Kinematics either so this PoseBalls thing has 
been on my 'must deconstruct and work out' list for about 2 years now! Alas 
I've never gotten round to it so I have to credit Mike  instead. :)

Hey guys,

 

I need a solution for "multiple pivots"

 

At this moment my idea is to have all the pivots pose constraining the object 
in question, and a slider activates which pivot is active. The animator is 
however not satisfied, he would like to grab the pivot and animate the object 
through the pivot...

 

I'd welcome any idea...
