Deform still checked

Question

Hey guys,

I inverted the selection and toggled off the deform but Deform is still checked in the lower right (although the panel is greyed out). I guess I can manually uncheck it for all the bones except the DEF but it was supposed to do that automatically. Am I missing something?

Hi Eugene,
That panel isn't greyed out, it's just collapsed. The greyed out section is the bendy bone stuff.

I have a feeling that didn't hold Alt when clicking the deform option?
That changes the setting on all the selected bones and not just the active one.

But not 100% which mode you disabled this option. (I can't remember they way I showed in that lesson)

Hi Wayne,

On Mac is Command actually but it doesn't work either way. Deform is still there, I have to manually uncheck it. It's alright, I doubt I will ever have hundreds of bones to not deform.
