good advice. I didn't know about the space shortcut, I used to constantly right click and go to the lock options! Spacebar is much quicker.
Worth remembering with activepose, particularly with limbs, it actually locks at the joint 'above' (or closer in to the core than) the chosen body part. You can see a box around the limb, and the actual pin shows you where the locking takes place.

T-Pose isn't the best position to show it, but without locking you would still get movement in the shoulders, and if you pulled the hand far enough the figure would begin to bend over. Locking constrains the IK movement to what's available with the locked part in it's current position.
So if you click the upper arm, it will lock at the shoulder. Or if you click the forearm it will lock at the elbow. This always seemed a bit strange as the part of the body you're selecting to lock can then still move, but once you get used to it it's very helpful. I assume this is standard anyway, and not some option I've got selected because I've never changed any pose settings.
