just in the process of rigging a character I created, seem to run into a problem. this is my first attempt for rigging so I am follwing a tutorial the problem is I have set up a left arm ik handle which is attach to the forearm and shoulder which supposedly give the arm a little more freedom, follwing the tutorila on how to nrig they attach a locater to the wrist which I have done and parented it to the arm ik handle the problem is when I parent it, isnt it the ik handle suppose to be controlled by the locater now which mine hasnt.

any ideas what I am doing wrong?
