    Well...the easy way is to open the clip and drag the contents up to where the pivot point currently is...

    I think I know what you're asking...maybe not. You'd have to properly "nest" your bone connections. For example, the shin mc would be part of the leg mc, which would be part of the body mc. Otherwise, I'm not sure what you're getting at...

    Reset transformtion point refers to the transformation point of the movieclip you are attaching bones to.
    This can be moved so that the mc turns around the right point. In a shape with bones it will not do anything.

    heres some stuff about bones, some of it animating characters.
    Nothing too earth shattering, but you may see something useful you did not know.
