Very large bone on characters getting in the way

[AMkyle]

Alright so anyways, on the characters, when im trying to move their bones, or pose em, on choreography, there is this huge bone at their feet getting in the way. I saw it a while ago, then didnt see it, and now im seeing it again.

 

Heres a picture of it

 

 

do you see that large black bone right at his feet, it is really blocking the view from bottom view, side views, top view, birds eye, and even camera view. and if i accidentally click on it, it rotates my whole character.

 

 

Can anyone lend me a hand?

That's the model bone. you can shrink it if you want by opening up Shaggy in a model window, going to bones mode and clicking on a blank spot.

 

The black bone will appear and blink. you can now set its length in the properties window>Bone position>length to something small.

 

resave shaggy to your HD and use that version for your work.

 

 

 

Ultimately it's like a lot of other bones that are near other bones... be careful where you click.
