I appreciate the OP for starting this discussion - and I appreciate all the contributions in the replies thru the whole thread - as it will save a lot of time understanding where P13 is at. I'd recommend to OP to try to revamp to a dual 3060 GPU on MB that supports dual GPU set up - I did this last summer and it was literally double the performance - and then some. 3060 alone is not enough for pro graphics. My other CPU has a 3090. It's not too costly for dual 3060 and you'll also need a bigger power supply, over 800W - it is comparable to my 3090 solo system... Best wishes.

is a version still available? I need this tool

ive had some recent issues with everything slowing down to a crawl once certain complex obj's imported into my scene -- and I found today this thread. Bump. turning off the bending has improved drastically my performace i've got rtx3090 and great cpu and lots of RAM - so I'm glad I found this thread - hey developers on 13 - really think about whether this "checkbox" should even still be available in poser 13 preferences - i dunno - is it helpful for any situation nowadays? just my findings thanks for all the great work everyone merry christmas

thanks so much - I learned something new - much appreciated!

Have you tried Hierarchy Editor to toggle visibility on and off?  It is certainly easier than selecting the Properties Tab on each figure/object.

I am using Poser 12 for graphic novels/comic books - I render out black and white for coloring in digital painter softwares etc. Sometimes for creating layers, I need to isolate certain figures/objects based on "z depth" - it would really be nice to have a "SOLO" checkbox option in the properties tab next to the "Visible" checkbox - that way I can just isolate one item instead of having to "uncheck" the "Visible" on several properties tabs. Thanks

*edit - I guess with lights keeping on LOL - yeah I know it ain't easy that's why I'm a drawer not a programmer!
