Is there a way to hide Genesis’ armature in the 3D view?  It’s really annoying to have to view it all the time (and it gets in the way).

HI Kodiak3D smile

Not as far as I’m aware.

The bones will be visible when you select the figure,.. the same applies to any Carrara rigged figure.

I agree, there ought to be an option to disable it.

You can switch off visibility of the bones - one at a time, sloooowly - under Effects->Bone->Display wireframe when attached.  Wish there was a way to make them all invisible at once:)

Yeah, I’ve been annoyed with this too.  Wondering if there’s any way to use Fenric’s ERC control so that if you set the root of the armature to visible=0 it could apply the same to all the descendants - though if I remember correctly, this might only affect a direct line of children (tail 1, tail 2, tail 3 . . .) so wouldn’t help with siblings (think you’d need a sepearate one for each finger and toe for instance.  Just thinking out loud here.  I’ve often wanted to get rid of that armature myself.
