Available Uses:
XL (eXtended library) is an eXtended library system for Poser 8 / Pro 2010 and up (Windows and Mac) written in Poser Python. Not working with Poser 11 Pro anymore!
It gives you full access to your Poser content and has several advanced features to improve your workflow. The XL window can stay open while you are working with Poser, you can minimize it to be out of the way while you don't need the library.
With its separate folder tree and file list, XL is easy and quick to navigate. You can load and save all kinds of Poser content based on the well-known library structure with figures, props, poses, materials and so on. The tree displays a single library type for a single runtime or may show all runtimes in one tree. Switching between runtimes and libraries is done by selecting either one or both of them. Again, there is an option to show all libraries in one tree. Together with DSON Importer, content for DAZ Studio can be browsed and loaded as well. By defining your own favorite folders, you can quickly switch to the folders you use most often. Cross-links can be defined to link related content folders, e.g. a clothing figure and its materials. The search feature allows to search for content in one or several runtimes.
The most important use of a content library is to load content. With XL, you can select several files in a folder and load them at once, e.g. different parts of a prop set or several clothing items of an outfit. For conforming clothes, they can be directly conformed to the selected figure in the scene, optionally also together with adding deformers (magnetize) and setting morph values, to make the clothes fit immediately.
For all kinds of poses as well as for material collections, it's possible to select the target object in the scene in the library, so you don't have to switch between the scene preview and the library when working with several figures. Single materials can be assigned in the pose room, by selecting one or several materials from the current figure or prop.
Note: Due to limitations in Poser Python, there are less options when saving content to the library.
Note: Only PNG thumbnails are shown, no RSR thumbnails.
