They are called pose presets... At the bottom of the content window is a 'save as' button, the option is also in the menu. The 'save as options' we are concerned with here are, scene, pose preset, materials preset. Pose presets can be either transforms only (poser style pose file), morphs only (poser style MOR pose), or both. As for the render options. "The only rendering option that shows acceptable shadows takes absolutely ages", Yeah it's called RAYTRACING, and is far superior to the opengl instant pictures for morons option that is the default in BOTH DS AND Poser. Compare the 'slow render' in DS to firefly in p5/p6, which would be a fairer test. to 'disable textures' during camera moves, click on the little arrow button nect to the camera name on the viewport window, you can select the usual options, wireframe, hidden line, textured untextured, you can also switch to 'bounding boxes only during moves with an option in the 'edit preferences menu'.
