To make the library buttons smaller? I seem to recall something from the dim past about it..
Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.

Have not tried it but it appears to be RuntimeuilibraryPalette.xml
It seems likely you can change icon size there with Left/Top/Bottom or some such.

There was for Poser 5 (it was easier to find and read on PoserPros until recently, but it is here if you search far enough back - posted under my nick). But unfortunately it won't work in P6. As eF actually retrograded that piece of code (from dynamic to hard coded) you can only guess at the reason.
Probably to shave a few minutes off the time to code the multi-column library option introduced around that time.
BTW, you can still use it to EXPAND the size of the library entries - but you probably didn't want to do that. ;-)
(OT: Wonderful! Firefox on Linux will actually let you use its spell checker on this fckeditor :-) )
PS: The ParamDials hack to reduce the height of the entry for each dial still works - on P6 at least, don't have P7 to test but I suspect it still will. It removes the image of the dial, and lets to stroke across (or up/down) the dial name instead.

The ParamDials hack does work on Poser 7. I even moved the "value" column over a bit after playing a bit with the xml. Gave me more room for the dial names. :)

Yeah that dial hack is what made me remember the library hack, but if it's hard coded now, guess there's no way to reduce them. I'll have to send in a bug ticket for that.
On my 28" monitor, that library palette is much larger then it needs to be. (I'm talking about the main library buttons on the far right.)
They could easily still look good, but be 1/4 the current sizes.
