The Pose node
When to use it
Opens a viewport for posing the skeleton by hand and outputs the deformed mesh. Select the node to get the gizmos; deselect it and they go away.
Use it to check a rig at extreme angles before shipping it, to build the corrected pose Set DNA Expression or Set DNA RBF Pose will record, or simply to pose a character for a render.
How to use it
- 1
Connect a skeletal mesh
- 2
Pose the skeleton in the viewport
- 3
The output is the posed mesh
