If you're like me, you probably spent a lot of time in Blender trying to figure out how to use the IK Pole Target feature. Here's a quick tutorial on how to use it.
First, select the bone that you want to be the IK Pole Target. In the Properties window, under the IK tab, check the "Pole Target" checkbox.
Next, select the IK bone that you want to control. In the Properties window, under the IK tab, select the "Pole Target" option and choose the bone that you just selected.
Now when you move the IK bone, the pole target bone will follow along, keeping the IK chain aligned.
This is a really quick and easy way to add some extra functionality to your IK chains in Blender. I hope you find it useful!
