# NeutralPose Creation

**Important**\
This step is crucial as it directly impacts the process of creating subsequent poses for animation. Simply put, creating a **NeutralPose** defines the workspace within which all further actions will take place.

### Functionality <a href="#functionality" id="functionality"></a>

* **Select Controllers**: Automatically selects all objects whose parameters are tracked when creating poses.
* **Set NeutralPose**: Resets all controllers to their default position, which serves as the base for the created **NeutralPose**.

### Correcting and Updating NeutralPose <a href="#correcting-and-updating-neutralpose" id="correcting-and-updating-neutralpose"></a>

If the **NeutralPose** was initially created incorrectly, you can always **overwrite or update** it. However, there are a few conditions to keep in mind:

#### Expanding the Workspace <a href="#expanding-the-workspace" id="expanding-the-workspace"></a>

1. Click **Select Controllers** and, while holding `Shift`, select additional objects you want to track.
2. Click **Update NeutralPose** to refresh the data.

After updating, all existing poses will be adjusted according to the new data.

#### Reducing the Workspace <a href="#reducing-the-workspace" id="reducing-the-workspace"></a>

1. Click **Select Controllers** or manually select only the controllers you wish to keep.
2. Click **Update NeutralPose**.

When controllers are removed, the program automatically adjusts the data to fit the new conditions. Any previously created poses that included removed controllers will be updated accordingly.

The program adaptively checks the data regardless of scene changes, ensuring flexibility and ease of use.
