rigging dilemma: driving a parent with attributes of the child

[David Gallagher <daveg(at)blueskystudios.com>]

In Maya, I have no problem making two parented nulls and making the 
parent's rotation dependant on the child's translation. So as you (for 
instance) translate the child down in y, the parent can rotate the child 
in x.

This same setup creates a dependancy cycle in xsi. There's probably some 
other way to this, but I can't figure it out.


The situation is a jaw that's translating down, but needs to rotate as 
well from a high pivot as it opens when the neck is at some poses.

Thanks,
