Axis Constraint

Axis Constraint

Hi all!

Been working on a humanoid rig for C4 and setting constraints for the bones and
came across this oddity:

In the Carrara 4 manual on page 300 (as the pages themself are numbered), there
's a screen shot of the axis controls and there's a set of 3 radio buttons: one
for each axis. However in the program itself, there's text boxes for the three
axis.  I've tried to make sense of the text boxes and there's no semblance of
control of any kind. I type in a value in the X box and then go to the ring and
move  the diamond around and it rotates on the Y axis.

So, I'm staying away from the Axis constraint.

Is this a bug in the program? Undocumented change?  I'm currently using CPro 4
.1.1 and it's been remarkably stable and robust. But for the un-updated portions
of the manual and things like what I described for the Axis constraint things
would be joyous within my little 3D world.

Does anybody know what's up with the Axis, or how it's now used...

TIA

Mike Rhodes
