Need a poser 12 version that finds Hampelmann (the Poser version of Daz's powerposer) and brings it to front. It always jams and hides somewhere. Currently tearing my hear out

import poser

APPNAME = 'Hampelmann'

DEBUG = True

manager = poser.WxAuiManager()

def FindMe(name, debug=False):

for pane in manager.GetAllPanes():

if debug and pane.caption != '': print '\t%s' % pane.caption

if pane.caption == name:

return pane

return None

if DEBUG: print 'Searching for running scripts...'

me = FindMe(APPNAME, DEBUG)

if me:

print '\nScript %s found' % APPNAME

me.FloatingPosition((0,0))

me.Float()

me.Show()

manager.Update()

else:

print '\nScript %s is not running' % APPNAME

Interesting to hear Hampelmann can run on Poser 12. I get the "Bad Magic Number" version error with it on Poser 12. And on Poser 11 it launches, but then I can never get past its initial loading panel and onto what you see in the image below. How did you get it working on Poser 12?

To prevent possible confusion by readers of this thread, Hampelmann is not figure. It's a "Python script for Poser 8 allows to create and modify layout, geometry and figure definitions for Hampelmann, a figure posing tool." Later updated for Poser 2012.

I think what's being asked for is a script that grabs the Hampelmann panel, and pulls it forward in terms of its z-depth in the user interface.

Ah, just a thought. Are you asking about Poser 2012, or Poser 12? They're very different things.

Hey bud, so glad that an echo came out in response to my post. Dizzi released a Poser 12 useable version of Hampelmann on his page, crazy as it is, as a release on his page. The bad magic number program does not happen to users running poser 12 who have downloaded this most recent release of Hampelmann.

Please make me my script......... i love you

Thanks for the news about a Poser 12 version of Hampelmann. 1.7 for Poser 12 is free at his forum: https://beckh.net/alforum/index.php?topic=3819.0 though may also need the free 1.6 from Renderosity https://www.renderosity.com/freestuff/items/65754/hampelmann-v16-figure-posing-tool-for-poser-9pro-2012 for the configs and figure profiles. Regrettably I still can't move it past this window, whatever I do or load. Moving to the next screen is presumably done by the tiny arrows in the top-right, but they do nothing.

But this at least gives me a panel I can test your script with. Here is a working version of your mover script in Poser 12:

# A PoserPython script for Hampelmann 1.7 for Poser 12 which is
# available free at https://beckh.net/alforum/index.php?topic=3819.0
#
# Usage:
# 1. Launch Hampelmann in Poser 12.
# 2. Run this script.
# 3. The active Hampelmann panel is grabbed, moved to the upper left of the UI.

# statements here are Poser 12 (Python 3) specific, and thus this is not a
# Poser 11 script.

# Detect Hampelmann on the list

# If a Hampelmann panel is present, move it to the upper-left of the UI.
# Change the co-ordinates after FloatingPosition, to move the panel elsewhere.

The provider Dizzi gave me a script that is a fix to this that forces load at the screen so I no longer need a fix.

As for YOU <3

Heres what YOU need to do click import layouts, then find the folder you donlowaded from his site containing all the layouts of tons of popular figures, THEN click known geometry, click the ones that say the reletive character to the character you use, almost always its MILWOM for millenium woman, and then you will get the poseable doll
