I'm not enough of a programmer to see how that would be accomplished. I WAS imagining something like Carrara and Amapi (to name one anciliary) be open and running at the same time and changes made within Amapi to be reflected immediately within Carrara -- even to have the Amapi interface appear as a "window" within the same metaphor as the existing rooms of Carrara. I have not tried Transposer yet but I seem to be hearing that it will update the data in the Carrara window whenever the data in the Poser window is altered. Perhaps there is a "refresh scene" button. I've been spending the week doing the Poser dance here; moving files from Carrara to UVmapper to Poser plus PhotoShop textures. I would have rather fewer grey hairs if I could just "press a button" and cause the work in one application to be updated in the connected applications. So I fully understand the utility of this! I suspect, however, that it would be less of a programming chore to run some functional modules of Amapi as a plug-in; as in the metaphor of the current Metaballs monitor, which since it first appeared in Ray Dream has all the appearance of being a seperate sub-application with it's own GUI, that is connected only tenuously with the main application.
