Subject: How do I HIDE morph dials?

I don't want to strip out the morphs, just turn off the dials that show up in Poser. How do I do that? EASILY, I mean...

I don't believe it can be done within Poser; you'll need a third-party utility or a text editor.

Here's the relevant section of the morph code:

        targetGeom Round<br></br>            {<br></br>            name Round<br></br>            initValue 0<br></br>            hidden 0<br></br>            forceLimits 4<br></br>            min -100000<br></br>            max 100000<br></br>

Change "hidden" to 1, and the dial won't appear when the figure is loaded.

Toolbar>window>uncheck parameter dial I think that's what your asking? SWAMP

Little dragon is right. You can only do it in a text editor or separate app, like cr2Editor. The dial code LD showed is for a morph, but it's the same for scale/rot/trans dials too. Just change 'hidden 0' to 'hidden 1', or the reverse to unhide them. Someone had a tute on this somewhere, ages ago, but it's easy enough to understand. mac

OK,I'm still not sure I understand the question(very normal for me). I did have a script that would hide any unused dial(all dials with a zero)..didn't strip them,just hide them....got it in free stuff. But as I,m not sure of the question...I'll just stop talking now. SWAMP

If you're using Poser 5, you can simply create a new group in the parm dial palette, drop all the morphs you want to hide into it and collapse the new group.

To hide a morph (targetGeom) channel by editing a cr2 you have to put the "hidden 1" statement AFTER the closing brace for the deltas. Whilst Little_Dragons solution works for other types of channel, morph channels are a special case.

                                d 942 0.000329997 0 -9.90033e-005 
                                d 943 1.20029e-005 0 -2.99886e-006 
                                } 
                                hidden 1
                        }

You can also use a pose to hide a morph channel by specifying the relivent actor and morph. { actor box_1 { { targetGeom Morph1 { hidden 1 } } } }

Or you could get my DialMagic for Millennium figures in DAZ's software section. It's a set of pose files for Poser 4 that lets you on-the-fly show subsets of a figure's morph dials, for example, nose shaping morphs or speech. It has all the morphs for Victoria 1 and 2, Micheal 1 and 2 and Stephanie, but not Victoria 3, Michael 3 or my MikePlusVersion2. Includes a user guide with more info. Stewer is right, Poser 5 lets you create sub-groups that you can show or hide as need - really nice because you can drag dials between groups anytime you want a different subset
