Assembly Edit
Interactive state for rotating, deforming, and fixing rigged assemblies after auto-rigging. Inner utility of the Assembly Resource.
Assembly Edit hosts the edit-assembly interactive viewport state. Once an assembly is rigged, it adjusts the rigged result: rotate sub-components, apply per-joint transformations, and fix minor connectivity issues. Inner utility of the Assembly Resource wrapper; can also be placed at the top level for granular step-by-step workflows. Edits are stored as transformations on the rig and persist through cooks.
