In poser 7 when you rendered against an blank background the figure floated in space and the horizon line did not render.

In pp2012 it renders a horizon line and the forground takes on the color of the light that shines on it. As shown here.

Anybody know what settings are needed to not render that horizon line? I set the render to render over a black background so I do not get white ghostings.

When I go to display/guides/horizon line it renders this way whether I have horizon line clicked on or off.

And anybody know how to get the vanishing lines to show up in the preview screen? Like the default poser7. Again, when I click on vanishing lines it does not turn them on.

And finally, any ideas on how to make the foreground plane not visible to light? Sometimes I want empty/blank space there like in poser 7.

The ground is visible in Poser9/P2012, but was only a shadow catcher in previous versions. If you don't want the ground to appear, simply select it and make it invisible.

Yes of course Bantha, thank you, some solutions are so obvious they are not seen for looking :-)

But is it possible to get the x-z cross lines on the ground plane preview window or has that feature been removed?

In the material room, select the ground and turn on 'shado catch only"

in pose room, select ground, drop down "display->Element style->wire frame
