Just rotate the forearm bone until it snaps the other way.

Yes, for the gorilla's arms you will have to remove the bone targets from the forearm bones. Targeting is animated, so you can restore it at any time.

Actually, There is a way to do this without removing the target bone. With the Transform Bone tool, click hold the forarm. Drag either to the left or to the right. until you see a change. It might work if you pull it in the opposite direction that you want to go.

Yeah, I told him that earlier. Removing the targets was for restoring free FK/IK.

I'm sorry synth. I actually caught this earlier on and tried to delete that post before it was read, but I didn't confirm the delete. Welp.....This is embarassing. :oops:
