Can somebody gmme a short hint how to delete all Frames within Python? There is a command 'DeleteAllKeyFrames' but this is not what I'm looking for. I need to erase all frames (of course not the first one :-) Thanks in forward

Here are a few useful examples.

Am I blind or did I miss something? :-) I can'T find a command to delete a frame in your useful code. Only for Keyframes. Sorry that I have to ask again ...

I assume that I should use something like poser.Scene().NumFrames() = 1 But this doesn't work. OR should I use SetOutputRange. But this isn't exactly what I'm looking for ... sigh

Sorry, I thought you meant keyframes. In order to delete (or add) actual frames, Python has to play a trick, which only works when there's a figure in the scene. The attached file holds an example of Fake Frames. The little code at the bottom is just to test the main routine; you would include the routine in your own code and call it in the same way.

Thank you again. Thats what I needed! I always wonder how some people find such a solution. Great!

Thanks Ockham. That's a neat trick. I knew that adding frames was going to work, but finding the way to delete frames is a great tool to have around.

Ah, there it is... I thought I had asked about this months ago.. It was back in July. Good things come to those that wait.

wow! thanks ockham. you rock! i love how the Poser PDF manual never bothers to tell you there is not a call to add/delete the total number of frames. I've been stabbing for a solution and here it is. thanks again.
