        I need to see an example. I'm not sure exavtly what that means.

        I have been thinking about doing something like an umbrella with multiple moving parts and stuff, is that sort of the idea?

          Hopefully thie example will show you what i mean.

          Essentially, one component is constrained by parameters so that it can only be positioned in certain ways.

          I thought about it a bit more, though, and it probably wouldnt be hugely useful as you wouldnt be able to see how the components were constrained untill you tried to move them.

          edit: just had another thought, it could be used for some very basic rigging, i'll try ad get an example up and working in a while.
