How to reparent bone?

Post by lion » Wed Oct 18, 2017 7:29 am

I know there is a prompt in the lower right corner: Middle click + drag to reparent bone. But I can not reparent the bone. Maybe my operation is not right. I use the middle mouse button to click and drag the bone. But the bone do not have any reaction. What can I do to reparent bone? Sorry, my English is bad. I translate it by google.

Hello,

Yes that is what you have to do. You Middle + click, then drag to the target bone which will light up. You let go of your mouse and it re-parents.

Update: Sorry are you on a Mac? I think the Mac description needs to be updated for the next update :P To reparent on Mac, you hold down the SHIFT + Right Drag to re-parent. Sorry about the confusion. That will be fixed for the next Mac update.
