Is there any way to copy an object in Poser and paste it into the same scene? I tried doing this with a pillar 'cos I'd rescaled it etc. but when I clicked on copy/paste nothing happened. I'm using P5 and would be most grateful if anyone could give me an idea on how to do this. Thanks. 8) Catlin

Only way I know that works is to save into a library and reload from there - it can be deleted from the library later... :-)

if it's only re-scaling, you can copy the parameter settings from one object to another. -copy-load new object-paste-then move new object as xyz will copy/paste as well

Note - Duplicating an object with the Grouping Tool automatically "reScales" all parameters of the "NewProp" to 100%. cheers, dr geep ;=]

What the copy and paste do in Poser is essentially to copy the pose of a prop, body part, light, or other Poser item, so that the paramiters can be pasted into somthing else. Exactly what is copied to the clipboard dependes on the type of item copied from. To see exactly what is being copied paste into a text editor (e.g. Notepad). I hate the random way Poser 4 loads spotlights, so I keep a code snippet of a white spotlight with its translations and rotations zeroed, and paste this into any new spotlight I load.

Thanks Doc, you do know an aweful lot of tricks in Poser don't you. I'm going to try this out later when I get off line. 8) Catlin
