Copying pose from right side to left side

mhayes1954

Hello everyone,

Is there an easy way to copy the left side of a character to the right side of the same character..?  What I mean is, if you just adjusted your pose on all the joints on your right arm, is there an easy way to copy that same pose to your left arm..? So far, I've had to copy each selection and paste it to the opposite arm. It just seems that there should be a way to copy it to the other arm.

Thank you in advance for any help,

Mike H.

Shift-Y opens the symmetry dialog, choose the direction and which nodes to copy.

Once you are in the Symmetry dialog:

If you want to copy the whole right side of your figure to the left side, pick the "Root" node and "Recursive" and "Copy R - L"

If you only want to copy the arm, select the topmost bone of the right arm whose parameters you changed (e.g. right shoulder bend) then pick the "Selected" node and "Recursive" (this will apply changes to all the bones below that one) and copy.
