Poser Python Scripting F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Dec 02 3:16 pm)
Neat script. However there a problem not with the script, but with Poser. Currently you can appear to change the values on the inputs of a Compound Node but those values are not transmitted into the working of the Node itself. In order to fully change the input values you need to make a small change to each input manually in order for Poser to know that an input has a new value. The bad part is that you cannot change it to the same value. So in this case click each color chip and select a color just below the top left column and it puts in a color very close to what was shown. This is also a problem in Poser 12.
There is a ticket in and it is on a list of fixes. Right now they are working on getting 13.1 ready for the end of the month.

Oh, you are right and I was aware of this, I simply forgot, sorry about that.

To be used in the Material Room.
Default:
The node remains selected. I select the color for P1, then the last one, example with greens:
Other colors (P2 to P7) untouched.
Launch the script and here is the result:
In the last version, the color chips inside the compound nodes are correctly set:

OK, now you've got me interested ... where can I find this 7-color color ramp? Am I wrong in assuming it's downloadable somewhere, or is it no longer available?

B, it is in free stuff. Search for "RICHARD60"

OK Y-Phil, so is what I just downloaded from the Freebies section the most up-to-date version you've posted about?Oh, you are right and I was aware of this, I simply forgot, sorry about that.

@ThunderStone If you want a rainbow I would use the Expandable Color Ramp. One of the options is to blend between 2 colors of the color wheel.
In the example above it just has 2 colors and does a HSV Far blend style. What that means is that starts at a Blue color and works it's way around the color wheel towards Green. But in order to get there it has to pass through Red. In Poser Red is Zero, Green is 120 and Blue is 240 if you were to use the HSV node to make colors. Below is the expandable color ramp with 6 colors Red 0, Yellow 60, Green 120, Cyan 180, Blue 240 and Magenta 300. you can see those colors on the 2 edges. The bands in between are those colors and how the different blend styles effect the color shift. I like the second (third if you count the edge colors) band in. This is a simple gradient with the ease applied. What that means is that the colors that define the start stop have a greater effectiveness and show for a longer time instead of being a straight gradient.
you can find more information about the blends in the PDF I included with the Expandable color ramps. The nice thing is that you can choose how many colors to make your ramp instead of being stuck with the 7 I had in the orignal version.

@ Miss B The 7 Color Color Ramp in the freebie area is the version that Y-Phil wrote his script for. The second post of his is the correct version of that script to account for a problem in Poser that won't allow Python to make changes to a compound nodes inputs and have those changes flow into the workings of the compound node. You also may wish to check out the expandable color ramp as it is made to more closely mirror what Blenders color ramp does. I also have a Map Range node that Blender has that is missing from Poser but you can get the same results with my freebie.

Below is the expandable color ramp with 6 colors Red 0, Yellow 60, Green 120, Cyan 180, Blue 240 and Magenta 300. I made an error in the numbers. Should be Below is the expandable color ramp with 6 colors Red 0, Yellow 40, Green 80, Cyan 120, Blue 160 and Magenta 200. The color wheel goes from 0 to 239 and at 240 resets back to 0 Red.

Aging and hospitalizations doesn't leave me much options other than reading silently. Couldn't resist helping out a friend tho.

I do like Richard60's 7 Colors Color Ramp but my laziness strikes in when it comes to set the in-between colors correctly and in a progressive manner...
That why I've written this little thingie.
If it helps someone: cool
To use it:
- stay in Poser's Material Room
- setup Color P1 and Gradiant End Color
- run the script
Looks like Visual Studio Code's Copy function and Rendo's messages editor seem to collaborate correctly
