Hey guys, just for the record, if I QUOTE a paragraph, then I'm responding to that paragraph and I don't care about the rest of what you've written...

First, there is no need to load the entire structure into memory in the first place, it's overkill and quite wasteful to say the least.  Posers "Library" is split into various sections, Figures, Props, etc..

But not the library dropdown... It allows access to all sections at once... Also, remember when Poser was written... Disks were slow and thus accessing directories on the fly was slow. It even is slow nowadays. Too slow, to buil the library drop down on the fly and have AN ACCEPTABLE RESPONSE TIME. And by the way, that thingy allows access to all the libraries at once... I don't use it, so I'm happy they finally added the suggested means to not have Poser build that stupid dropdown at all...
