Could someone be kind enough to show a brief example of how the method "DialogTextEntry" is used. I'm reading the example syntax but am not sure what "parentDialog" is referring to.
Thanks,

Hi!
Just use:
dte = poser.DialogTextEntry(None, 'YourDialogText')
You show the dialog with
dte.Show()
and get the text with
text = dte.Text()
Hope that helps!

OK that works, thanks :)
Where is this documented?
I was looking everywhere for it.

I don't think it's mentioned in the Poserpython pdf at all. I built myself a console to play around with the Python API in Poser itself, and since there were just the two methods available, it was quite easy to figure it out. As far as the parentDialog is concerned, I don't know what it is actually supposed to be (the Poser Application window?), but None seems to work fine. martin

The only Python documentation you can really trust, is what gets extracted from modules and classes themselves using documentaion.py Not everything is covered in the supplied script, but it's easy to add what isn't.
