[Bf-animsys] New depsGraph and rigging concept in blender

[Boris Cohen Tanugi]

Hi again !
Just a little idea that could help without changing/breaking anything in
blender.
Could the object.matrix_parent_inverse act like a real pre transform?
Actually it's only taken into account if object has a parent. Why not
always? ("frozen" empty could be usefull in rigging!).
Thanks
