But... I can't find it.
I find what I think is the "dependencies" section of the manual. Bnut it seems to talk about muscle bulges etc. I want to link separate front wheels or other objects like that so that they turn together. Guess I'm to sleepy.

I forgot to say... "I'm looking for a tutorial but can't seem to come up with the correct phrasing for what I want to do".

Maybe you looking for ERC coding.

Quote - Maybe you looking for ERC coding.
That was my first thought.
If so, there's a thread around here somewhere relating to it. I asked and LesBentley answered. I wanted to get a central section of a part to move forwards, while other things around it opened out, like a petal.
You can use ERC to do a lot of things, either independently or in conjunction with others.

For an overview of ERC, and some links to further reading, see the "**How to write ERC code?**" post (about 19 or so posts down), in the thread linked above."Dependent Parameters" seem to be a name that the people at Poser are using to describe some new innovations in ERC, but also to subsume classic ERC.
As I only upgraded from P6 a few weeks ago, I have not yet come to grips with "Dependent Parameters", but classic ERC has the advantage on being compatible with all all Poser versions from P5 up, and even to some extent with P4.
If you only want to learn about the newest stuff, than you should visit Teyon's links. If you want to learn a bit about what goes on "under the hood", and stay compatible with older Poser versions, then the above link is also worth checking out.

Wow.
Thanks for all of the info and help.
I am anxious to dig into this.
Thank you so much!

It works! Although I still get confused and mess it up.
Is there a reason why Poser Pro 2012 only lets me add two master parameters beforew it overwrites one?

Not sure but did you remember to change the name of the Master Dials? That should help avoid that problem.
MacMyers posted Mon, 16 April 2012 at 9:03 PM
It's an aircraft Model.
I set Master Parameter Dials for the Ailerons
Then for the Rudders.
When I go to add another... it overwrites the rudders

Well... this is what I got From SM:
Thank you for the additional information. I have been able to reproduce what you describe and I will be writing this up as a report for the engineers.
In the meanwhile, I have a feeling that this might only have been introduced in SR2. So if you would like, you can try uninstalling Poser, reinstalling it, and then applying just SR1 (you can redownload it from your order 307224 if you need to - I just reactivated the download links for that order for the next day) to see if the Master Parameters work any better for you then. Please let me know how this works out for you if you do try this.
As for documentation, there is no guide to the master parameters aside from what is written down in the manual, most of which is around page 600 and thereabouts.
