How Do I Set Servo Limits

Hi, How can I set the limits for a set of servos prior to the rest of the system initializing? While using the autoposition window it initializes with the servos set to 90 deg. That breaks some servos for me. So I created a frame called 'rest' which I try to set first. Even then, I can move the servos beyond their limits in the autoposition window...

Microsoft Emotion And Face Api Plugin Too?

@DJ Thanks so much for the other MS API plugins... Cognitive vision works pretty good... I was wondering (and not to get greedy or anything) but would it be possible to create an Emotion and Face plugin as well?.... These api's are fantastic and add so much extra vision functionality to ARC... But If not, again thanks for what you have done so...
