Question

In the "Rig Hierarchies" video you have a master parent empty. How do you scale that to include more objects etc without it pulling everything apart, or scaling everything?

Sorry it's not an empty, my mistake.

Although, the master parent cube you added, comes in as wireframe and everything else is shaded, hence the confusion.

I'm confused -- What's the reason for scaling the master but not wanting it to scale its children?

If you add more children, and they start spilling out of the master, you might want to make the master larger to fit them all in. I guess the obvious workaround is to delete master, and make a new one.

cconspirisi - Yes, removing the master relationship and re-doing it with the new children is the way to do that.
