Is there any way to not have to use the u.i. Instead press a button to put it in camera swivel mode like blender can do with the middle mouse button .

Poser 11 has a feature where you can define your own shortcut keystrokes. Check out the manual, I"m not able to look it up at the moment.

The keyboard shortcut editor dosnt seam to have that option. But I could be wrong

If you hold the Alt button and move the cursor the camera swivels around, is that what you are after?

"Customizable Keyboard Shortcuts - Assign the keys you prefer to frequently performed tasks and map menu commands to the hot keys that you choose." quoted from the Smith-Micro Poser 11 product page.

Omg thank you yes the alt thing you are awesome
