Quote - You can do blend shape rigging in Poser. Just keep in mind that weight mapping with just a bone can't translate. You have to use a weight mapped magnet to do that. The map switching can be a little tricky to set up, but it is not impossible. Now if only we had that good of a preview....

Interesting about the weight mapped magnet.  That's something to look deeper into.  I don't like the way magnets behave with direct translations currently.  You have to move the base, etc., and it can be somewhat clunky workflow. Not the smooth fluidity I would like to have over a "control object" in the viewport, when animating or emoting a character.  I can see potential there though.

However, I haven't seen anyone successfully illustrate a practical way to blend between texture maps, controled by a bone or morph yet.  Do you have any real world examples of that in practice?
