Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2025 Jan 24 4:20 pm)
Subject: Help with "bones" :)
I tried those controls you have pointed to, but nothing happens.
I'll just work with it at this large size and just move it left and right as I need to. When it's finished I'll just rescale it to a more usable size.

others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we
are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not
angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to
say." - Ghandi
By the way, shouldn't you be in bed? It's late. I'll just carry on making my individual names and we can pick back up tomorrow.
Scoot! Go get some sleep :)
EDIT: I solved my problem of having to scroll so far to the right. I deleted some of the props! LOL I now have 12 props for a total of 24 links. I still have to scroll, but not all that much.

Yes, I'll be up for hours yet. Total insomniac here :)
I finished separating the names into unique names and deleted the "link" and "clink:' groups.

Anyhow, let's continue ...
Check list:
-
Are all the props in their correct positions relative to each other?
-
Are all the links in different groups with unique names?
If yes to both of the above questions, then we can "glue" (Export >>> Import) all of the props together.
Are we ready?

I just went through all of the "props" listed and looked at the grouping tool.
For each prop of 2 links, when I select the first name in the Grouping Tool IE: "1", both links are red. When I select the second name IE: "2", only that link is red. Is that how it's supposed to be? If so then I'm ready for the next step :)

Use the GT ... and do this.
-
Select group "1" ........... (both links are RED)
-
Click the "Remove Group" button and click the small arrowhead to popup the list of groups
-
Click on the "2" to remove it from the "1" group
Ok?
Now, the "1" group should only have the first (left) link in it
... and ...
The "2" group should only have the second(right) link in it.
Ok?

We only want ONE link in each group>

Ok, I went and did that for all of them and now when I click on each name in each group only 1 link is red at a time.
EDIT: By the way, I'm sorry that this is taking so long. I'm not the brightest bulb in the store when it comes to learning computer things. Frankly I'm amazed that I've gotten this far on this, or that you have had the patience to stick with me this long :)

Yep, that's what mine looks like now :)

Export as a wavefront object?

CAUTION ... BEFORE we delete all of the individual props ...
Let's import out "Untitled" object and make sure it has all the correct groups, ok?
Good idea, what? ... yes, no, maybe ... ???
;=]
Hint: Go through the individual props and make them NOT "Visible" on the "Properties" tab.
NOW, let's import our "Untitled" prop as follows...

Ok. I imported it back and the grouping tool shows "1" and "2" in the drop down area.

We need to include ALL of the props that have links when we export the OBJect..
You didn't delete them? ............................................. Did you :blink:**

I only did the test one that you mentioned above....I made all of the others "not visible" in the parameter dials.
But I'll go and make it all visible again and export and import the whole thing.

Ok. I finished importing and looking in the grouping tool and I have only the numbers 1 through 24 showing.

hehe. Yep. It's all about bones.
I'm tired. Can we carry on tomorrow? I want to finish up something I was working on early and then head to bed shortly because I have an early physiotherapy appointment on Friday.

Acadia,
Before we do anything else, ...
SAVE the prop that you just imported in the Props Library of your choice.
We will continue mannana (tomorrow) ... a little Spanish there. ;=]
Sleep well and congrats on a job well done ... so far.

Ok. I have it saved in props :) And thank you again for showing me how to do this. I can't believe I'm actually on the way to making my very first model of something, even if it is only aping what you have shown me! :)
Night :)

Hi Amy,
That is a good question ... and the short answer is ... YES!
First, we need to add "bones" to our figure and then ...
... we can create an IK chain for our chain figure.
Thanks for asking.

Ok, it would appear that you have the "Untitled" prop SELECTED when you do the "Point At..." thingie ...
DO NOT DO THAT !!!
Make sure you have the MAIN CAMERA SELECTED BEFORE you do the "Point At..." thingie.
It would appear that you have caused the "Untitled" prop to move out of it's correct position in the chain ... no???
