Let me preface by saying... I think I'm losing my mind... I've lost functionality in my export features. The image above shows what I can check... and that's it. I've been using P4 for years and never had this problem before. I noticed it when trying to export an object for morphing; I cannot check the box for, "As Morph Target(no world transformations)". Then, I discovered I can no longer check several other selections either! The only thing I seem able to check is, "Include figure names..." & "Weld body parts..." Has anyone else run into this? What in the world would cause it? Is there a fix? I can reload the whole program again, but would really rather not if there is an easier fix. - UPDATE - P4 is now not letting me adjust the parameter settings on the dials! Aurrrrggg!!! What... is there some form of timed "self destruct" for P4??? This is insane! Where're the men in white coats with that lovely large net?

Let the export dialog box open. Open another application (Workpad, Acdsee or whatever...) Click on Poser' export dialog box title bar (to get it in foreground) Now you can access all the options. You can let the other app in background. Actually, you can go to any other open window, then back to Poser and the function works. If no other window is already open, displaying the clock will work, also. Hope it helps -D

Are you sure you don't have a virus? This sounds like some external nasty-critter is chomping up Windows resources.

Dagon's right about the export dialog. It's a known and particularly bizarre bug that crops up. Switching to another application clears it up though on occasion, I've had to do it more than once if I recall correctly. If restarting Poser or rebooting doesn't fix the dials then indeed that indeed may be something more serious.
