Adjusting Character Proportions in CTA5 for Mocap and Animations

Hello. I am carrying out some animations in CTAv5.02. I was wondering if there is any way to adjust the character proportions so the legs, arms, etc. better match the motion capture. In image 1, below the green arrow shows how the legs are bowed inward for the 2D character, but the 3D dummy has the proper leg positions.

In IC8 you do have the option to adjust the character proportions (see image 2). Having a similar capability in CTA would be excellent =)

Hi Allen,

Thank you for following up. I believe I was able to find a workaround for the issue. I had to adjust the bone structure to account for the different body type of the character. See video in the link below. Left most character shows the incorrect legs, middle and right characters shows the desired behavior. At the end of the video, I show the adjustment to the bone rigs.
