Adjusting the weighting of vertices

To adjust the weighting of vertices:

1. In the Skins window, select Smooth Colors in the Weighting Options pane.
2. Add the model you want to adjust to the Skins window by selecting and Alt-dragging it from the Viewer window into the Model List .
   

   Alt-drag the model into the Model List

   The name of the model is added to the Model List, and all the bones associated with the model are listed in the Bones list. In the Viewer window, the vertices of the model display in different colors.

   

   Colored vertices indicate the amount of weighting applied to specific bones

   TipYou can also Alt-drag models out of the Skins window to remove them from the list.
3. Select the bones in the Bones list, select the vertices on which you want to adjust the weight, then use the weight sliders or fields to change the weight of the vertices.

   For example, A and B show how weighted vertices are modified relative to the right elbow roll, to be weighted relative to the right wrist. The color of the vertices changes from pink to blue to reflect that the vertices are weighted with respect to the right wrist, which displays in blue.
