There are keyboard shortcuts for almost everything. For example if you click on the Select Camera drop down menu you will see them listed out. Other menus similar.

Ctrl+M = Main Camera
Ctrl+/ = Dolly Camera
Ctrl+T = Top Camera
Ctrl+, = Posing Camera
Ctrl+F = Front Camera
Ctrl+; = Side (Left) Camera

Terrific information! - I just scanned thru the PDF Poser4 Manual on the CL site today, and couldn't find ANY of this info; Many Thanks, All!
JeffH posted Tue, 05 February 2002 at 5:53 PM
This info is found on the QuickStart reference card (Couldn't find mine).

Oh! And if you Press "Alt" key while clicking on some "interfaces", like "tools" & "document styles". They will switch between Horizontal & vertical positions... And i think that if you do a pose in frame 1, then switch to frame 10(arbitrary), make a second pose. Then just use Page Down & Page Up to see the transition between the 2... Tada! Anik

JeffH, Try looking where I did. In the box you stuck in the closet a long time ago. ;) Man, the text on that quicksart card is small!
geep posted Tue, 05 February 2002 at 9:52 PM
... that "Alt" thingy for the "toolbars."
I like it, but ...
Now I'm gonna hafta rearrange my whole screen [which I have used very happily for decades] to accomodate their different shape on the screen.
Doggone it, doggone it, doggone it ...

Blame it on my Brother Viomar, Geep! :-) He's the one who showed me all his tricks... So, curse at him if you must! And don't bother making faces, causes he won't be able to see them! I guess you don't want to know the trick that brings "collision detection" to poser??? Runs off to hide behind Viomar... smirk! Anik

Ta very much for the hotkey guide :) (Liverpool-speak...english translation--thank you very much) Mon

Collision detection in Poser? Surely you jest, Optical! Just on the off chance that you're not a complete and utter nutter :)~ ... I implore you, what's the trick?

Yeap! I was a "jester" in another life... But, My bro did make a plug-in that's partialy working for Max, that does just that! So, far it crashes on meshes that have to many vertices... But, who knows??? Maybe the folks at Curious Labs have already sloved that for poser5!(Crossing fingers!) Basically, how Marco went about it is simply create what's called a "matrix" in programming, that keeps track of vertices or faces for "predefined" groups. There's already a good explanation of the priciples & algorythms invlolved available in 3D Math books... The problem with doing it with the vertices, is that it gets too complicated for even High-End PCs(p4 1.6ghz) too handle! So, the only "Viable" aternative is with faces or groups of them... Anyhow, Back to "posing"... Tada! Anik
