Anyone have such a script and where do I get it?  The IK support in my plugin isn't reliable at replicating the results seen in Poser with IK so my usual take is not to use IK.  But I'd like users to be able to disable IK, save the scene, and then be able to reenable it for further modifications incurring the least amount of suffering (Poser's method makes the fires of hell seem like a pleasant vacation).

Thanks!

This is one of the many example scripts found in my Comprehensive Python Manual.


# turn all IK's ON-OFF

#

# by PhilC

import poser<br></br>
scene = poser.Scene()

def setIK(flag):<br></br>
 fig = scene.CurrentFigure()<br></br>
 if fig:<br></br>
  IKlist = fig.IkNames()<br></br>
  ik = 0<br></br>
  while ik < len(IKlist):<br></br>
   fig.SetIkStatus(ik, flag) <br></br>
   ik = ik + 1

setIK(1) # 0 = off, 1 = on<br></br>
In the manual I also show how you can run the script using a keyboard shortcut.

And a book plug to boot, ay, Phil. ;)

It's a bit steep on price for my limited use of Poser Python but may do it any way as I have a plan which would only work if the functionality was: disable all IK (noting enabled IK chains), save scene, enable previously enabled IK chains. :D
