How do I add an offset frame to something in my model?

[adamkewley]

In the current version of OpenSim Creator (0.5.0), the way to add an offset frame is to:

• Right-click the body (e.g. in the navigator panel) to which you want to add an offset frame and click Add Offset Frame
• Or select the body (various ways of doing this), followed by clicking the little lightning icon in the properties editor. This opens the same context menu as above, which should also contain "Add Offset Frame" as an option

Note: the official OpenSim documentation tutorials explain offset frames, their relationship to joints etc. in more detail - from an OpenSim perspective, at least.
