Just a little issue that bugs me with all the previous versions of Poser and I'm wondering if P7 fixes it.

When you are in any of the directories in poser, say Props and the list goes longer than can show on the screen.  You choose a sub folder down the list and then if you back out of that sub folder it always returns you to the top of the directory list. 

The reason this is annoying is when trying to find something and looking though these subfolders it would be nice to come back out the the same position you just came from so you can then just click the next one down.

I hope I explained this clearly.

Not a major issue just something I'd almost upgrade to get..

Any info would be appreciated.

Yes, I know exactly what you mean. It's the same in Poser 7 and Poser Pro, I'm afraid.

Click on the title bar of the menu instead.  (The title bar above the name of the subdirectory you're viewing that has a small down-arrow on it.)  That preserves your location in the menu system.  So, navigate from there instead of clicking on the subfolder icon that is directly in the subdirectory you're looking at.   As long as you use that way to navigate, your latest directory browsing location stays "remembered."  If you use the "click on the folder icon" method, it will always go to the root of the directory.
