Default Rendering bones

Hey fellas,

Just an easy question. Can bones be rendered in Lightwave?
I know in Max bones can be toggled on/off to be rendered, but i cannot find any help on this for Lightwave!

Do you mean rendered in the viewport? They can be turned on in the viewport so you can see them useing bone X-ray. I know its there but I dont know where it is hehehe.... mabye someone with a little more expertise can help find it.

No not just rendered in a viewport, but actually output in my animation as visible objects.

As strange as it may sound the bones are the perfect shape for what i need in my current piece!!

You would have to model the bones, then attatch bones to the models of the bones. I hope thats not to confusing.
