How about an upgrade to the MORPH TOOL or some other minor mesh editing options. I would love to see some basic Boolean operations like Subtract, Union, Combine, and so forth. Even if it's only for non-rigged items, it would be VERY useful.

Y'all have a great day.
As a program mainly used to setup scenes, it would be great to have some kind of Boolean operations on objects: imagine you kind of "dig" an object using another one (or add tops: kind of mixing two things), be it using the morph tool or using the material setting. Bryce use to have this, and it was fun to dispose of such a tool.
A kind of Morph tool on steroids, with not only a simple more or less blurred circle but any shape, any 3D object.

Two other features that would be easy to implement, and really cool:
- a way to filter a selected folder in the library window
- a way to search only in a selected runtimes, instead of all
and the many features (at least part of it) that are available with the underlying database manager (regex, or part of it such as the use of jokers, etc...)

I would like to have a function in the library search that leads you back to the position in the column were you picked the folder and opened it, instead of always being pushed to the top of the folder column and have to scroll all the way down again. Searching the Library by pressing a letter would also be a nice thing to have.
PLEASE add Boolean operations.
And it is LONG past time that you expand the Memory Dots. Increase them to either 16 or 20 AND add ability to either color code each dot or add notes (or both). Maybe you could name the dot and have that appear as you hover over it, like a tooltip.
And PLEASE add Lights Dots.

Lights dots? interesting idea. In between, I'm using groups of lights, and using a script I turn them on/off by group:And PLEASE add Lights Dots.

There is already a 3rd party script for light dots, and it is GREAT. But honestly, this feature is LONG OVERDUEmmitchell_houston posted at 5:46 AM Wed, 22 May 2024 - #4485142

One huge step that would be an awesome enhancement: completely rethink the way the detection works.
For example: consider a scene in a living room, with quite a lot of stuff around, plus a few objects outside the room.
Now, you're working on your characters hand, using the direct manipulation tool:
Sometimes, the detection can't "see" neither the blue, nor the red, nor the green ring.
Worse, the detection often check for objects far beyond the currently selected character
Definitely missing here: a better priority management

You can actually use the Boolean operations Feature imposer via the octane rendering engine plug-in. If you're interested in better renders.

As long as its only optional and they don't remove perpetual licenses like Adobe did its not bad. That just means people who can't afford the big price tag have the option to try it out.The day Poser adopts the subscription model is the day that I uninstall Poser.

Absolutely agree! That is all I use Poser for too and its an area that definitely needs some love. Especially considering the GUI slowdowns that have come over the years. For example the Animation Palette is lightening quick when I go back to Poser Pro (7) but these days there is a long delay/lag we have to wait for every single time we try to arrow through frames. it makes the process a bit frustrating. Especially for more complicated scenes. I almost need to go back to older Poser just to do the main animation work and then bring it into modern Poser to finish it up. Id rather keep it all in one place.Main thing I always wanted to get improved was the animation panel.

As for boolean operations: that would require manifold ( a.k.a. 'watertight') shapes, so meshes in which each facet edge meets exactly one other facet edge. For non-manifold objects you cannot say what is 'inside' and what is 'outside' of the mesh. Meshes of objects in Poser in general are not manifold. If you have ever tried to 3D print a Poser figure you will know what I mean.
A Lights group is a very solid idea. I might need to try that in my next scene and see if it improves development speed.mmitchell_houston posted at 5:46 AM Wed, 22 May 2024 - #4485142

Another thing I would like to see is the ability to increase the character count for added lights and cameras. Being Limited to 32 characters makes it difficult to add meaningful descriptions to new items.
