Is zero = zero ?

here is an image, all pose controls, all transforms, everything is zero but it seems that it is not.

Have to say, have loaded a pose preset and zeroed all transforms and pose controls for the legs, shins, feet, toes and so to have straight standing and that is the result. Anyone have a clue? Or is there something else I have to zero?

    What happenes if you hit the Zero Figure in the Parameters tab dropdown?

    is another limb attached not zeroed? Is a morph engaged that could displace the pose? Is a transform locked?

    I guess I have found it, I think it was the metatarsal of the feet.

    If you are zeroing individual bones, then I find selecting that bone and it's children are needed to make sure you get all of them.

    I know but the metatarsal is a new thing and I guess I have recognized this I just have selected feet and toes. That was the mistake.

    I wish we could zero the figure again just by having the root selected, it's so broken and a waste of time selecting everything manually :(

    If it's a design choice...is it really broken?

    But yeah, having to select and reselect everything is a royal pain.

    well i prefered it in the past when you zeroed the figure the limits were enabled again. and I wish you could enable limits for the whole figure without selecting each node. It used to work that way. Was much better.

    (sort of a tangent, but related)

    And if I remember that was a specific choice when Genesis came out...because of the changes in rigging/move to the triax-weight mapping. 

    There are times now, instead of going through all that I just load a new version of the figure and start over.

    well what I do not like is if I select just the head, change a shape and want to memorize "selected shape", that does not work.
