I am trying to setup a rig in which joints translate according to their parent-child relation but where the rotation is being evaluated and set in world space.
Until now no success. Did try to unparent the control-rig hierarchy and insert a form of position constraint between the (former)parent and child, but documentation about pos-constraining is sparse in APEX. Would not know how to do that with the proper offsets. Also I need to do it on 32 segments so automation is key here as well. Could anyone maybe give me a hint how to approach?

Here I have created controls using the original point positions and constrained the original to the new ones with a offset.

If you are simply looking to have the handles align with world you can set the handles in the ctrl+g menu
