So far, I find that poser is not a very friendly user software, I would suggest Poser should make changes as below:

  1. Interface: The interface occupy a lot of RAM, it should improve it by making a more simple design that does not take a lot of memory.

  2. When posing a character, the mouse movement does not limited to the view we selected(eg.if i select top view in lightwave, i can move the object to z or x only, no y is allowed). As a result, I cann't pose a character accurately with accurate mouse movement.

  3. Only allow me to undo once.

  4. The dynamic clothing is too complicated, too many step, too many button, too many possibility, it need to be simplified and be precise.

  5. Selection is difficult, I cann't select the part of the character or the character once and forever, I need to keep on n on to target my mouse pointer on the part I want to select.

  6. When posing, there are too much tendency of creating distorted figure(eg. over twisted arm, legs, body etc), though there is a function call 'Use Limits'.

I would suggest that, poser shouldn't have a ready to pose of a finished charater. It should start with the bone structure, and I don't have to worry of creating any distortion. Once I statisfy with the pose I create with the bone structure, then I add on flesh, then hair, then cloths etc.

  1. Cloth should not be ready make(it take a lot of memory), it should have a template for me to chose each part of the cloth, and allow me to do any change by filling in numbers.
