Get Orientation- makes the orientation the same as the second selected object. Select your icon that is placed(frozen transforms) shift select the joint it should match and press the button. #This does give an error, But still works. I'll work on that.

combine(combines selected curves into one curve), Replace (Select curve you want to change, select replacement curve, click.Changes the shape object of first with that of second.)

Scale -, scale + (change the scale of selected curves, but works within a chain without changing the spacing of the icons.)


Joints Tab

Display Axis(shows/hides axis of selected joints), Orient last (makes the selected joint have the same orientation as its parent(To keep consistant orientations of joints and help prevent sheering))

FK, IK (select root joint, and it makes the chain FK or Ik using the existing joints names)

Mirror joint (mirrors joint based on radio button below button, and search and replace for renaming)

Add attributes( add attributes to selected objects, choose attr type, fill out the name field, set options below it, add it)
when you select the data type it will update the GUI to have the necessary options.
