Hey guys.

Sorry if I’m being dim here, I don’t do much animation or rigging. I’ve gone through the tutorials and had a bash though. I’m confused at the seeming lack of control on the legs. I can’t seem to find a control that let’s me pose the legs in an opened way - hopefully the attached image illustrates what I mean clearly. Surely what i’m trying to do is possible. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Many thanks.

Hello InMind!
So if I’m correct you can’t find the controller for the knees direction. The lack of a poleVector may be confusing the first time you approach this, i know.
So, into the Animation Interface you can find a little box on the knees, changing the value inside the box modifies the bending direction of the leg:

A quick tip: You can press CTRL + Middle Mouse Button over the box (keep them pressed) and drag your mouse to quickly scroll the value inside
