When I delete right and symmetrize left leg again after I made IK changes to the bones, the right leg does not affect the mesh any more. Whatever I try, I can not make it work. Where do I go wrong ?
Thanks for your reply. I started right over, trying to avoid the problem rather than fixing it. Maybe it had to do with the deform option on the bones that was not set after symmetrize, but I will see if I am able to replicate it. I will keep in mind that I can send you a link if needed. I am new to Blender and this exercise is really keeping me on my toes. I have to go through it step by step, very very slowly. Not giving up though.
