Yup, cheers Andrew, but to have the actual constraint named under kinematics
would be dead handy!

 You can also presumably at least rename the custom parameter slider, so you
do have a renamed proxy.

 Not yet. Chalk it up to another request in waiting. While it seems a simple
request on the surface, it's actually a difficult one to implement.

 For your particular situation, I almost always set my FK constraint first,
then my IK constraint second. That way I know that the constraint with the [1]
at the end of the name is linked to IK, and that's the one I want to control
with the blend slider. I always add a custom parameter slider to control the
blend. It takes literally 5 seconds to set one up using drag and drop. :-)




 Hi all,



 Anyone know if it is possible to rename constraints? I have an IK and FK pose
constraint, and it would help to distinguish them apart...



 Cheers guys and gals



 Jamie
