When I open Poser. I want it to open with my light settings. Also My rendering Document size. and My Quality size.

This is what I like to set my people or Props with so I can get a quick Idea how the coloring will look for my animations. From there I have other lighting setups for more dramatic or what ever light setups I can use as needed. and I use my UI dots for any other layouts I may need.

I don't mess with Python Scripts because I have dyslexia. Between what I type, and what I see. there can be lots of errors. I just don't want to spend time trying to mess with I would guess be a fairly simple script where all I do is type in the size for rendering, Lighting, and Quality settings that I have saved.

I'm into speed in setting things up. and every time I have to put cloths on a person, see how their skin color looks That type of thing it would be nice to have the things mentioned open as I wanted. I've tried using the General Prefernces, this way and that, but it doesn't work with what I'm shooting for.  Thanks if anyone has this kind of Script.

I've done that and for some reason that doen't work. It drives me crazy. I re-set it again, maybe somewhere down the line, one of my updates corrected that since the last time I've tried it about a year ago. I've tried it everywhich way for a few months.

I just set it again before I got back onto the forum. I knew that was the first thing someone would come up with.  If by chance it works. Thank goodness. Finally. if not, Here we go again.  Thanks for the input.

Well, I've just opened it up again, and it still don't work. Another bug I have is sometimes when I try to load a light into my files. I push the + key, but nothing happens. This is usually after I load a light, and noticed that I wanted it to be the first thing I see in that folder. So I delete it, after that It won't let me load another light.

I have very few problems with PoserPro 2010. At least I'm glad the little glitzes I have are easy to over come.

what I did was to set one of the UI dots because I kept needing to go back to factory settings.

I use Poser 7 and the + sign in the library is to save an item to the current library. You use one of the tick marks to load the selected item to the scene. Maybe Pro2010 is different ?

I have all 9 UI dots loaded. for different setups for working. But that don't give you Lighting, and render quality.

I have every thing set up the way I want it, my problem is, I am wanting to push a phthon script that loads it all in one click. The biggest reason, Is when I choose all my charactures cloths, I want to make sure they fit all the way around with a quality render at that time. Because I load sometimes up to 10 people that will be in a movie at sometime. I would be happy with the lighting mostly, because with the standard lighting that the scene opens up with is not what I want. So I have to delete the lights, and add the lights I want. the quality of the render. Just those two would be great. But now!

1, Have to delete the characture. Then their hair in some cases, and all the clothes. After doing that you have to inter the Lighting you want. and the render quality you want. The demensions I can live without at that point, as I have my UI dots to cover that.

2, The other choice is to start a new scene, load the render settings, delete the standard lights, and replace them with my personal settings, so I can see all around the person, to see if the cloths are fitting correctly., and I like to see if the coloring is to my liking with a perticular person and their cloths.

Saving those things in the Personal Prefernces just don't save Quality of the render, and Light settings. I apperciate the imput. you never know what I may be missing.

simple answer to the defaults resetting... save your default as "Masterscene" and if needed just reload that to reset your scene pref's.

Well, That's what I ended up doing. That's not the way I wanted to go, Mostly is I have so many things going, I'm afraid I won't find it. I work on a few movies at a time, for me if it's not a perticular scene. I will forget where I put it. That never happens with My Movie files, but this is not a movie file.

If you scene my monitor. you would see why.  Thanks! that will have to do.

Just a Note:

Ah! One thing I haven't ever used before, but really comes in to play with my situation!  When loading something into a scene. you have 1 check mark, and 2 check marks. One is to load and replace, the other is to just load.

It was infront of my eyes all this time, but I never loaded something that I didn't want. Well. I just clicked the single check mark, and it deleted the lights I didn't want, and replaced it with the one I did want.

I'll have to try and use that with charactures when loading clothes into my scene when I change charatures and see how that works.

There are 2 tabs in the preferences that need changes made to it.  Sorry, I don't have Poser open.  But I remember that there are 2 tabs that needed adjusting.  Click on each tab and you'll see what I mean.

I've done that a number of times and it never takes. but I have a system down now that I did about 8 charactures in one fourth the time it would have taken me before. I'm all done with that part of the movie. Every thing now is finishing the script, and make the movie.

I've done those tabs, but if there is something that I"m missing. I'll try again. I was under the impression they were suppose to save every thing you have. I deleted my characture before I saved it in my favorite Perferences. But the only thing that comes up is the way the window was when I closed. So my guess that is a glitch with Poser. at least with the way it is reading when I close. Thanks.
