Re: Fk ik switch problem

["Steven Caron" <carons(at)gmail.com>]

yes these tools are before  6.x. we are still rigging in 5.11 and animating in 6.x( so we have an escape plan in case things go terribly wrong ) so we haven't had the chance to evaluate character key sets. once we switch entirely to 
6.x we can start to use them

Yes, position keys on bones will mess things up because they affect the up vector. If you enable "show critical zone" you can see exactly what happens.

I cringe when I see someone translating a bone L .

Btw Steven, it's possible the keying tools you use were made before "key character key set" was introduced recently.

I use this all the time and love it when 'blocking' a character.

we have animator tools that handle keying for us, that way it doesn't matter what keying option the user has ( key all keyable ). it handles a key on the joint rotation properly. and when this happens to our animators they just use our switching tools to switch back then forth, which clears any conflicting keys on a joints position.
