Poser Library not alphabetical
I recently purchased a new iMac Pro and upgraded from Poser Pro 2014 to Poser 11 Pro. Now my old machine used High Sierra but now I am using Mojave. When I was using High Sierra my Poser 11 Pro worked perfectly but when I installed it onto the new machine with Mojave all of a sudden all of my content libraries were no longer in alphabetical order. So I went out to SmithMicro and tried to submit a ticket but it kept asking for my version nr. and no matter what I typed in its would tell me to type in the correct version and would not let me submit a ticket. So I then tried to find a way to contact them but it turns out that they have suspended all live technical support and will only allow you to look at the forums or to submit a ticket.
Now I did find the thread below but I tried to follow what they said to do but when I click on the system hard drive there are four folders, Applications, Library, System, and Users. There is no Library folder inside my Users folder or inside my User/username folder. So I clicked on Library/Application Support/ but there is no folder or file called Poser Pro11 and no file called Poser Prefs. I have searched every place on that drive and I can find no document called Poser Prefs or Poser Pro11 Prefs. I even called Apple Support and we spent over two hours looking and found nothing.
So how do I find this document in question so that I can change it. Otherwise this program is useless as it requires literally looking at each content library item to find what I am looking for and tripples or quadruples the time required to add anything at all. I am a user and not a coder or a programmer and so I have no idea what else to try. So please help me here. How/where do I find this prefs document or is there another fix so that I can fix this issue. Quite obviously I am not the only one who has encountered this . . . thank you . . .
__****If you are seeing your Library Folder (Figures, Pose, etc...) not in Alphabetical Order, you most likely just need to change the Sort method for that Library.
You need to change the option in the Poser Preference for the Library using a Text Editor. The Poser Preferences is located at
Mac "User/username/Library/Application Support/Poser Pro/11/Poser Prefs"
Win Poser.ini is on Windows is in Users\AppDataRoamingPoser Pro11"
Open the file using a Text Editor and locate the line LIB_ITEMS_SERVER_SORT Setting it to 1 from 0 should fix the issue. Category :GraphicsUpdated on 28 Feb 2019 08:43 PM****
