Subject: How to make Python buttons "stick"


Schecterman ( ) posted Fri, 22 October 2010 at 8:29 PM · edited Mon, 27 January 2025 at 8:21 AM

I keep adding scripts in the Python window/menu/thingie whatever-you-call-it through those buttons with the "..." on them, and every time I restart Poser (Pro 2010) the ones I've added are gone.

Wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for Poser's tendency to open the last folder you used for whatever and I always have to navigate through a maze of directories to get back to the Python stuff I want to add.

So is there some way to make them stick, to make them stay there after I close Poser and reopen it?

The file you want to modify is Runtime/Python/poserscripts/mainbuttons.py

You can also place a script in Runtime/Python/poserscripts/ScriptsMenu/(make your own name) and they will be in a pulldown under "Scripts" menu at top

Okay thank you, I'll check that out. :-)

Since those buttons are typically pretty well populated (usually with only two spaces left), I went and created a sub-group, a "PoserSet.py" button group which included all of these buttons. Did that by copying "MainButtons.py" to "PoserSet.py".
Then, in "MainButtons.py", I call the "PoserSet.py" this way:

poser.DefineScriptButton(3, ":Runtime:Python:poserScripts:PoserSet.py", "PP2010 Stuff")

Gives you a few more options that way...

Monterey/Mint21.x/Win10 - Blender3.x - PP11.3(cm) - Musescore3.6.2

Yes, Poser can be bad with that as a lot of other applications.  If you are on windows, there's a pretty cool freeware named Filebox extender that you can use to have your favorite folders readily availble in just about any application open/save dialog: http://www.hyperionics.com/files/index.asp

Thanks again for the information guys. :-)

And that filebox extender is very cool so I appreciate that too!
