yes , i know, i tried with the bone tool, but it didn't work as i wanted, just edit the bone, no created another one

When you do shift-left click on a bone, it starts *drawing* the bone chain using the bone you clicked on as the parent. To create the new bone, click again to indicate where you want the bone to end. Then press Enter.

I thought I continue to post here because I have the same problem with adding a new bone. I ctrl left click with the “bones” tool and click on the bone to draw another bone from, and it would just create a complete new root bone. I tried ctrl middle click to parent bone, and it would be in edit mode as well. Then Houdini crashes every time when I draw new bones. Can someone help? This is really frustrating. I never had that problem back in Houdini 8

I said, SHIFT-click.
