Scene file previews would also be a plus.

You would have to re-write every Poser File in your library to update them with metadata! You have any idea how long that would take?!?

BB said earlier, metadata didn't make this release because they didn't have time to get the UI portion in, but they are working on it.

You wouldn't "have to" re-write your poser file. old ones would still work and you could add the metadata to them as you go.

I didn't say they wouldn't work. I'm just saying that adding metadata to over 100gig's worth of runtimes is one job I don't look forward to doing personally.

Well, I'm guessing a l-o-n-g time to index existing files, the question being, would it be worth the hit for the considerable convenience down the road?

The metadata needn't be written into each file, it could be stored externally and cross-referenced with a relative path to the actual file.

If they do it that way it would certainly make things easier. The content creators could even offer the metadata as updates that way. Hell, even users could share the meta data files to make things easier. As long as the Metadata files could be written in a way that didn't require the CR2, PZ2 etc file be in a certain location to be recognised. I'm sure I'm not the only one who reorganises my runtimes when I install things.
