What are your pet hates about the Poser program and/or the various Poser add-ons (freebie or otherwise)? I'll kick things off:

  1. Lack of a decent Undo feature! Not only can you only undo the last action, but some actions cannot be undone! This is what really limits Poser - it's a pretty big risk when used on, say, commercial ventures.

  2. (this is the one that caused me to start this thread)

Expressions which reset the face morphs! Grrr...this winds me up. I suppose I can always re-apply the character morph, but it's a pain in the jacksie - particularly when it's not necessary. There are plenty of expression morphs sold which don't reset the shape morphs, so why on earth are they any that do?

This is also related to the #1 since, for some reason, this type of expression morph isn't undo-able.

  1. Inverse kinematics always being on by default. Yes, it's very handy. But it's also really annoying. You'd think that you could at least have the option of whether to have it on by default, or off by default.

  2. The crap Library system. God I hate scrolling. It's a particular pain when you have multiple runtimes and subfolders. Wouldn't it be much easier to navigate with an expandable menu - much less scrolling.

  3. Products which put things in the wrong folders. Clothing MAT poses in the Camera folder, hand poses in the main Pose folder - that sort of thing.
