Hi All,
I have a FBX face rig I have imported and the bone clearly shows a capture region over an area of the mesh but no matter how I translate the bone the mesh is never affected. I did request Blendshapes on import.
Are there any extra steps needed to make this work?

Ok, the frame captures are set to -3,-2,-1,0 for each part of the mesh. When I manually type in -3 in the timeline the head does shift. When I return to frame #1 it shifts back.
But how does one work with such a rig? It has a hundred line in front of the face and each one of those nulls seems to only control a few vertices.
The bones still don't seem to do anything, they are tied to the nulls via parenting. But I'm not sure why. I just want to move a single bone and open the mouth.
I am attaching the FBX if anyone has time to import it on their end. The resulting HIP file is 84Mb so I can't post that scene.

Thanks for taking the time to import the rig.
Those import tips helped me achieve the results your image displays.
I was beginning to wonder if I needed the ZYX rotate option.
Another tip for any other users is to use the Search Box to select all the NULLS and scale their geometric representation down quite a bit.
This allows you to select the various rig controllers.
When they are too large selection is an issue and you can only select the controller that is on top/first pick.
I guess rig clutter management just goes with the task of working with imported rigs.
