Short-legged Figures In Poser [4]
-----------------------------------
Hey, i just discovered this forum, probably bec. i just started using Poser again. I've had it for years but never really got into it, i think because of problems like this.....

Okay, i'm trying to do animation.  I start w/ the default figure and shorten the legs, e.g. to make a dwarf-type but with a big barrel chest, add an animation (e.g. lift weight from the default set), and when i play it, the guy's feet move up and down like crazy, i.e. relative to the ground plane. This apparently is related to the feet moving up off the ground when i shortened the legs. 

I get the feeling this is either a simple (read: dumb) question, or it's impossible. I looked around this forum and google and can't find anything, though i'm sure it's out there. Nor does the Poser 4 PDF manual address this obviously very basic issue. That is, HOW do you apply an animation to a figure w/ shortened legs and have the feet stay put..?! THanks.
