I have a hand holding a manipulator. I want it to stay in the moving hand. Parenting and constraints don't work. Can i link this manipulator to the bone "wrist.R" from the hand? I tried to link manipulator to the whole lady's armature and then deleted all extra groups, but it didn't work too. May be you see another solution? Thank you. Manipulator in a hand(armature)

  • $\begingroup$ you need to select the object, shift select the armature, switch it to Pose mode, select the bon you want and Ctrl P > Bone. You can also do the opposite: parent the hand bone to the object with a Child Of constraint so that it's the object that will make the hand move, it can be more convenient sometimes $\endgroup$
