how can I do this please in puppeteer?

Toobis

(check out vid below after this explanation please) I am trying to make a dress strap move in unison/parralel to V4's fingers to give the illusion she is pulling it up but I can't really get a solution so far and its really frustrasting me :( can anyone who is familiar with this please show me the best way to achieve this effect. I am trying to move the fingers parrallel at the same time as the clothing so it looks like her fingers are moving the strap upwards but am having limited luck achieving the effect. In the video it shows I really don't know what I am doing lol so feel free to point out how I am doing it wrong and what I need to do to make the strap and fingers move in unison.

Does anyone know of any daz animators who are familiar with animate2 and the puppeteer tab who I can ask with this please? thx.

You would probably need to use a DForm, perhaps parenting the DForm bode to the fingers of the figure.

I don't know much about pupeteer but I seem to remember playing with some freebie scripts from Casual that helped with this kind of thing.

Have a look on his site, particularly this kind of thing: https://sites.google.com/site/mcasualsdazscripts/mcjautolimb

If you want to move the discussion to another forum please edit the first post rather than sytarting a new thread, especially if the old thread has replies.

I just want you to change the parent of D-form_1, that is, D-Form_1 is the child of some finger, example the forefinger.

So you can move your finger, and always follow without worrying about the animation.
