Hi,

is there anyway to change or edit the bindpose of a character, without detaching the rig?

If I understand your question and can remember correctly, there should be a marking menu by RMB on the root joint I think. It should have an option Go to bind pose as well as set bind pose, which is what you want.

Ok, I got the name wrong, it's "Set Preferred Angle" and "Assume Preferred Angle" (set and go to bind pose, respectively, I believe). If that's not what you're looking for, sorry, I'm not a pro in rigging at this point.
