Ben:
I would like to use PzDB with Carrara. I know that I won't be able to launch items into Carrara, but it could still be very useful for finding content, then opening it the normal way. This is somewhat crippled because the field for the item's path is so small that the full path never fits, requiring me to enter the text with the cursor and arrow to the left to reveal the path. It would be helpful if you had either:
a) a window which displayed the full path when moused over
or
b) a right click pop up tooltip showing the full path
If there's another way to see it, let me know.
Also, it seems that adding a keyword to a folder is one of the most common tasks to ensure that a search finds an item (for example, a set of poses with mat files for an object which were poorly named and do not immediately index to the character object). In this case, one must use "add keyword", then select entire folder, then type in the keyword. Couldn't this common task be simplified, for example - right click on a current keyword in the current item pane could have an option to "apply keyword to current folder". This would help tremendously. Again, if there's a shortcut I've missed, please let me know.
i still don't understand groups. Is there a drop down, or other way to access a group once it's created?
Otherwise, after one session of playing with the test version, I have to say this is one of the most impressive poser utilities I've ever seen.
