    Delete IK handles

    To delete an IK handle

    1. Select the IK handle.
    2. Do one of the following:
      • Select Edit > Delete.
      • Press .

      The selected IK handle is deleted from your scene. However, the IK solver node remains in the scene so that it can be used by other IK handles in the scene, and by future IK handles.
