Poser Python Scripting F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Sep 18 2:50 am)

We now have a ProPack Section in the Poser FreeStuff.
Check out the new Poser Python Wish List thread. If you have an idea for a script, jot it down and maybe someone can write it. If you're looking to write a script, check out this thread for useful suggestions.

Also, check out the official Python site for interpreters, sample code, applications, cool links and debuggers. This is THE central site for Python.

You can now attach text files to your posts to pass around scripts. Just attach the script as a txt file like you would a jpg or gif. Since the forum will use a random name for the file in the link, you should give instructions on what the file name should be and where to install it. Its a good idea to usually put that info right in the script file as well.

Comment: This is great! Scripting finally makes Poser do what I originally bought it for; I'd been sort of disappointed about that up till now. (No regrets, though; pre-scripting Poser has already saved my job by livening up an "interactive text" I'm developing.) Just for info to others who haven't dug into the script stuff yet: I'm a C++ programmer by trade, and it took me 2 hours of fiddling with the provided sample scripts to make the "thing I bought it for" work properly. So, if you are familiar with programming in C++ or any modern object-oriented language, Python will be easy to pick up. Question: Info about Python itself is available, but I don't see a documented list of the specific functions "inside" Poser. (Sort of like the "SDK" in Windows terms.) Some are easy to use and understand from the sample scripts, but that still doesn't tell how to use them and what the limits are. Consider a line like figure = scene.Figure("Figure 1"). I can use it by copying, but where do I find further documentation on the class-level function Figure() ? ......ockham
