Quote - and what about animatable joint centres? I heard that would make scaling easier to make teens etc?
Love esther
Do you mean on Dawn? Or on Poser native figures?
It likely won't ever happen on Dawn, at least not officially, as that will break her pseudo "compatibility" with DS. So it will have to be done as a 3rd party injection and it will only work in Poser. There are some scaling features in her new morphs set, but I don't know how it was done.
As for the Poser figures, scaling works pretty decent on several of them without need for animated joints. Some not so much. And it depends on the body part you're trying to scale, AND how much scaling you're attempting. Most only need a few points, + or - 5% or so is usually plenty. Buttocks usually get scewed on the X axis, but Y axis works. It just depends on the figure's individual rig as to how well it works.
