"I just open Poser, delete James, and then start adding stuff to my scene. Heh. :)"

Neyjour: Save yourself a little time...

Open Poser, delete James, go to "Edit->Preferences". Highlight "Set prefered state" then hit "Launch to prefered state".

Next time you start up Poser, James will have gone AWOL, and will only return under high-pressure commands from the character library:-))

Actually, setting prefered state is more powerful than that: it remembers a good percentage of your GUI setup. So you can change the size and position of the "working" window, the postions of most of the movable tool-groups and so on.

And if it ever screws up (or if you hit something or inadvertantly minimise something to such a point that you can't get it back), you can revert to the Factory state to get back the default values. Then, of course, you have to apply your preferences again, manually, but that's usually better than finding bits of Poser unable to be used:-)

Hope that helps startup, (if nothing else)...

Cheers,
Diolma
