Detach rigid skin
After
you have bound skin, you might decide that you want to modify the skeleton,
change the bind pose, or do some further modeling on the skin. To do
these things you must first detach the skin from the skeleton, then
bind the skin again.
Detaching skin does not preserve the rigid skin
point sets and the rigid skin point weights. If you want to preserve
the rigid skin point sets, see
Detach and reattach to skeletons and
Detach and reattach to selected joints.
