# Foot

The Foot object represents a rigged three-bone foot. The foot rig is created from a collection of six or more guide objects: Middle Pivot; Right Pivot; Left Pivot; and at least 3 objects running from the start of the foot to the end of the toe (this means the foot must be at least a two bone chain). Extra items are added onto the length of the foot.

The rig created by MakeFoot contains a foot control and roll control. It can optionally create a distribution control, typically used for the dog leg IK distribution. This IK distribution control is created by default by MakeDogLeg.
