Actually, linking them in the sequencer is creating a group; it's just a group with a structure; So, this is still a result of group behaviour. The good news is, if you're going to using bones, this is not an issue. If you were setting up motion using contraints instead of bones, there are some other methods we could discuss using hotpoints. The "second" Assembly Room window I am speaking of replaces the current AR window when you open a group and has it's own "close" button in the top right corner which returns you back to the scene AR window. Look to be a cool character. Mark
