Re: Duplicate Symmetry failed

[Guillaume Laforge <guillaume(at)alamaison.fr>]

Hi Ahmidou,

Good to know !

But in my case I didn't export anything in a model. Sometime effectors 
diseapear when applying an expression on a bone ( can't remember the 
repro step but it was submitted on the bug list ).

I hope it is not Linux specific ( sorry for the Windows users ;-) ).

Cheers

Guillaume
