To create a basic capsule object
- Select
Muscle > Muscles/Bones > Make Capsule from
the main menu bar.
A basic capsule is created.
Since it is currently selected, it is highlighted in green.
You can also create a
capsule with an End Locator. This locator automatically drives the
length of the capsule object. This can be useful when using capsules
for sliding when you need them to grow or expand like a muscle.
To create a capsule with an End Locator
- From the main menu bar, select
Muscle > Muscles/Bones > Make Capsule with End Locator.
A capsule object is created
with an end locator.
- If you move the capsule or locator, the
length of the capsule automatically grows and aims to the locator.
The rotation of the locator controls the spin on the capsule. The
translation of the locator lengthens the capsule. Scaling the locator
has no effect, although you can still scale the capsule.
