Pole Vector Problems
Just rigging the arms of a simple block man, ive set up the IK handles as requires (from the shoulder to the wrist) and i'm now setting up pole vestcors located at the eblows using a cortrol curve, the problem is when I select the curve (that is aligned with the elbow joing but moved slightly back) and the the IK handle at the wrist and do a pole vector constraint, my joints jump out of place slightly, anyone know whats causing it and how to get round this??

Hmm, not come across this as yet but, have you a) 'set preferred angles' on the elbow joint? and B) frozen transformation on the curve?
I'll give this some thought if this doesnt work, unless someone else knows....
Cheers
