Once again, all of the tuts out there assume I know something I don't...

Object in the setup room...

I need V4's bones in it...

Can someone post the series of clicks I need to make to load the V4 material? I see no place to add anything to the setup room screen. Please be specific as to where each button to be pushed is located. I'm 67 and an idiot (as everyone knows.)

Help?

I didn't know you were 67! :D

Sorry -- I couldn't resist.

You're not an idiot; it's just that your memory, like mine, is linear (at least, that's my excuse).

Whilst in the set up room open the library, navigate to a suitable V4 (the dev version is probably best), double click on it.

I'm 60 and not much smarter :)

"Whilst in the set up room open the library, navigate to a suitable V4 (the dev version is probably best), double click on it."

THIS is where I get lost. WHERE is the library pane when you are in the setup room? I don't see a place to click to go there! (Feeling both blind AND stupid at this point!) ROFLMAO. And yes, I have the Dev version.

I'm every day of it... and my CRS is driving me crazy!

Window -> Libraries

You have to open it when you're in the setup room as it is not opened by default. 

Once it is opened, with your object-to-be-rigged selected, navigate to your folder with V4 in it and load her in. It will bring up a hierarchy menu that has a box that is checked that says Auto Groups, leave that checked (unless you already have the groups defined, then uncheck it). Scroll through the hierarchy and uncheck all the body parts you don't need added to your rig. Then press OK. The object will be rigged and you can exit the setup room. 

Then you can go about adjusting things, adding morphs or magnets etc, so that there is minimal poke-thru when posing. That is, assuming you're trying to rig a piece of clothing. 

ETA: Once back in the Pose room, with your new piece of clothing selected, you can go to FIgure ->Copy Morphs From... and select V4. Same with joint zones - Figure ->Copy Jointszones From... (right below copy morphs from), but you don't really need to do that. I do it anyway just for safe measure. 

Many thanks guys and gals... how to open the Library was the piece of the puzzle I didn't have!

Thanks to all!

 lol I had same prob bouncing from P7 to P14 (library was THERE in 7 )

ps 60+ too ;-).................will poser die when we all get put in a carehome ???? rofl

 This is the area where the PP2014 fitting room realy shines.
Rigging is as simple as loading the figure, clothing, a pass throught the fitting room, transfer rigging, morphs, done.

@ The library
In PP2014 => In General preferences, you can set the library to internal or to external, on flash on on air.

 whats the advantages ~ disadvantages on the library method ??

in P7 I used advanced library and "prpc" (never spell acronyms right so adjust as required) that let me send poser content to DS or cararra or poser

"prpc" doesn't seem to be maintained and the guy who made AL has given up [although it still works as standalone, easy way to view lots of content when you forgot name of ....] 

P7 to P14 might not sound like a huge jump ;-) but that extra foot or so on the wall can mean a few failed attempts :-(
