Poser Python Scripting F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Dec 02 3:16 pm)
Check out the new Poser Python Wish List thread. If you have an idea for a script, jot it down and maybe someone can write it. If you're looking to write a script, check out this thread for useful suggestions.
Also, check out the official Python site for interpreters, sample code, applications, cool links and debuggers. This is THE central site for Python.
You can now attach text files to your posts to pass around scripts. Just attach the script as a txt file like you would a jpg or gif. Since the forum will use a random name for the file in the link, you should give instructions on what the file name should be and where to install it. Its a good idea to usually put that info right in the script file as well.

Subject: Request a Parent in mass script
Now at work and PoserPro2010 is across town. When you say drag and drop in the hierarchy window. I assume you mean in; not into. I drag and drop stuff all the time. But if you want to move 10-20 items and the list is long (from bottom to top)...on a Mac the window is very slow to scroll when dragging.

My XO object manager can do this. It has a tree hierarchy similar to the hierarchy editor. It has a "parent" feature that parents all objects that are selected in the tree to the actor that is selected in the scene.

I searched this forum using the words parent and parenting and could not find what I was looking for, hence this request...(now if something already exists, please point me to where I can find it and sorry for the waste of pixels)
I spend a lot of time managing my scenes in the Hierarchy editor. When a scene starts to get to complex, I load a null figure and parent various figures and or actors that are set in the scene, so I can close the side arrow and collapse-shorten up the Hierarchy display. Which makes finding what I am working on currently a ton easier.
This is request is way way way beyond my scripting capabilities. Wonder if somebody could make a script that allows you to parent a group of figures or actors under a pre-selected null or any selected item. With an interface sort of like Semideu's Delete Multi script
First window you would select the parent to with check boxes like his Delete Multi. Second window you would select check boxes of the items you want to parent to the first selection.
If you try (smirk) to do complex scenes being able to 1 colaspse the hierarchy display down to the things you are currently working on or 2, being able to grab one item in the scene and move it and have everything parented to it follow along is a huge time saver.
I think the script would be complex enough, that it could become a sellable product.
TIA
