Boy, do I! :laugh:
What would I need, to make dynamic hair accessible? Mainly, I would need design tools which aren't solely oriented toward dragging in the 3D preview. I find all of Poser's interface-dragging tools to be unwieldy and awkward, with the hair tools being the worst of the bunch. The design tools feel like their development was stopped halfway through, before it was really ready for use, and then never picked up again. They always make me think (perhaps inappropriately) of a Douglas Adams quote: "Looks like a fish, moves like a fish, steers like a cow." The hair tools steer like two inebriated cows, trying to walk while attached to one another at the legs and wearing blinders. Just really, really awkward.
Obviously, though, that is (to some extent, at least) just me. I can't master Poser's interface drag tools, but others seem to manage them well enough. You've done a nice job with the hair shown above. :thumbupboth: I seem to require some new user interface paradigm or other for the design tools, but they can be useful, in the right hands.

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking. He apologizes for this. He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.
Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below. His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
