Hi Dave-

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but I'm not getting any problems by linking parent rotation to child's local translation.



Ok. Hmm, I'll look at it some more.

What does happen is a refresh issue. As you select the child and translate it, the default behavior is to compensate from the parent's rotation. You can override this default behavior by setting the Pos and Rot Limits on the channels you want locked to the parent.

Let me know if you need a repro script.

I'm not sure I'm following.
