Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

IK Handle Foot Rotation not working

Hello all,

I'm a bit new to Maya and I'm trying to rig my first model. I have it all rigged, but now I can only rotate the foot itself (from the ankle) up and down along the X axis. I cannot rotate it on the Y or Z axes. I'm not sure what is wrong. Does anybody have any help? I've attached some images explaining what I mean. I'm not sure what to do to get the legs to rotate out. The foot also snaps around when I rotate it along the Z axis.

The ankle joint has an Orient constraint to the foot control, and the IK handle has a Parent constraint with the foot control as well.

Any help is appreciated.
