Thanks all! Colm - Yes, I agree. It would be a powerful technique if developed. I'm thinking as a next example I'd do a classic 50's type flying-saucer. Using script-control it would be possible to do things like having the doors for the landing gear open and the struts deploy all together off a slider-bar in the script window. Scripts like this could save many hours when posing and animating figures and poseable props. It's not limited to new figures either. You could write control scripts for any figure that works in Poser 4. pro - I don't see any reason you couldn't implement similiar scripts using data like you're collecting. I used some simple trigenometry during runtime to do this script but I could have also just used a list of values for each setting to do the same thing. My approach is a little less cumbersome for small angles. With a large number of part changes like you'd see in a movement like sitting, a list would probably be a better option. Hypatia - We're all somewhere along the learning curve. Just remember to help those you can. :-)
