When I export a figure from P5 or PP to create a Wavefront Obj, I am only able to check or uncheck 2 of the 6 options. Am I doing something wrong? One of the tutorials for Steve Cox's UVmapper says to "Export object groups for each body part". Wouldn't that be the fourth option to check? I am not able to check the fourth option :(. I am only able to check (or uncheck) the third or fifth options. Please see my attachment for reference. Thanks so much for your help - in advance! Happy Holidays to All! TLee :)

Terrielee, You should only have the first option checked - ALL OTHERS UNCHECKED - if you want to export an obj to create a figure. I'm not actually sure what you're trying to do here. Just remap the obj? Anyway, uncheck them all except the first one. If you're creating a morph target, uncheck them ALL. (Forget the 'As morph transformation' - it doesn't always work) mac

Let the export dialog box open. Open another application (Workpad, Acdsee or whatever...) Click on Poser's export dialog box title bar (to get it in foreground) Now you can access all the options. You can let the other app in background. Actually, you can go to any other open window, then back to Poser and the function works. If no other window is already open, displaying the clock will work, also. Hope it helps

What I am trying to do is remap a Poser figure (Nude Woman P3 - in this instance). My problem is that I am unable to check the first option - or the second, fourth and sixth options either, for that matter, mac. I wondered why the options are there if you can't use them??? I am only able to check or uncheck the third and fifth options. I wonder if this is a unique problem (with my system) or universal??? Sounds to me like you can check or uncheck any or all of the boxes. I can't! I will try what you suggested, however, Dagon.
Thanks to you both for replying!
Happy Holidays!

How on earth did you discover that bit of brilliance, Dagon? What you said to do worked! And I am serious! How is one to figure something like that out? It certainly isn't "intuitive"! It certainly isn't in the manual either! I opened WordPad, did exactly as you said, and I was able to check the first box! Is there a secret manual to the real workings of Poser? ;)
Thanks so much again!
TLee:)

Hi TLee, I ran once in this problem. discovered the trick when switching between Poser and AcDsee... Problem cured by itself when updating my video drivers...LOL :o) -D

It must be a Pro pack thing or something. I only have poser 4 (and 5 uninstalled - LOL) mac


Terrielee ( ) posted Thu, 26 December 2002 at 12:03 PM

It happens in BOTH ProPack and P5 on my computer! But thanks so much to both of you for your help! I am so grateful!!! Have a Wonderful 2003!
