Hello,
I am starting to explore meshes and weights and trying to do something very simple but can't seem to figure it out. Sometimes, when I 'Edit Mesh' on an attachment then bind it to two bones, the weights automatically get assigned to only 1 of the 2 bones. Whereas, other times, the weights actually get assigned correctly to both bones. How do I reassign the weights between the 2 bones correctly automatically? Any thoughts on why it would get assigned correctly sometimes and incorrectly in other times?
Also, I can't seem to get the weight views like the ones in the tutorial below. I have 3 checkboxes - pies, overlay, and selected - but they are all grayed out and only pies is checked. However, even with pies checked, there are no visual pies on the vertices on my model. Any explanation? How do I get make the checkboxes not grayed out so I can see other weight views?

Here's a screenshot of what i'm trying to do. Basically, trying to make the weight auto-assign between the two skeletons so that I can bend the attachment at the "joint" created by the two skeletons. Right now, it's auto-assigning all the weight to only 1 of the 2 skeletons instead of spreading it between the 2 (which is particularly important where I'm trying to make the attachment bend).
