Pupils go off of eyeballs, worse with keyboard input

I can't figure out why my character's pupils leave the eyeballs. Camera input isn't as bad as keyboard input.  I've gone over all the labeling, compared it with other functioning puppets,,,, I'm lost?

    Have you set the pupil range movement parameter? Using the group that is the "white" of your eye as the range for pupil movement is helpful (okaysamurai just added an updated advanced rigging tutorial to his YouTube playlist that shows how to make "invisible" eye range to apply a clipping mask on your puppet's eyes.) Also, you can try making each eye an independent layer group with it's own specific eye gaze behavior, so that you can change the eye gaze parameter values Dave was talking about for each eye individually.

    For the "Exit Code: 146" error that you originally got when attempting to update to Version 1.1.1... was your Mac OS ever reimaged?

    Did you do anything specific that allowed the update to work?

    Thanks.

    Try lowering these Eye Gaze parameter values:

    Also, make sure you're running the latest version (v1.1.1 as of right now).

    I removed all previous versions of Character Animator.

    Afterwards I reopened the character, turned keyboard strength for Eye Gaze down to 10%.

    One eye is perfect, the other might need adjustment.  this particular character is more of a 3/4 view of her head, perhaps this is confusing Ch
