Did you make the phone, or is it one you downloaded from here?
I have All Tied Up, and it will definitely work here.
Can we get a screen shot of what you're working with?
And... What version of Poser?

Maybe the cord need to remodel in a straight line first ?
I'm using both poser 6 & 2012.
Thanks for you help !

I did a quick mock-up to give you an idea of how to do it.

The cord can be rigged in a coil but with the bones following the center line.
It would be best if the phone cord and handset were defined as an IK chain with the handset as the target. That would make the cord follow the handset .
I dont know Philc All Tied Up so cant advise there.

Thanks for the answer ! I'm going to try it. Once this is done, can I export it into DAZ ?
Will it work ?

D|S should read the file. > Quote - Will it work ?
I suspect the IK chain will have too many links for it to work as well as you'd like in Poser.
AFAIK, D|S doesn't have IK, so you probably won't get much joy.

that's nice. YOu could make a table, chair and set of poses with V4 and M4 and sell that for lots of money. I'd buy it.
Love esther
I aim to update it about once a month. Oh, and it's free!
