Hello all,

After checking in the Poser Python manual and the Renderosity forums, I didn't see a method to put all rotations to zero as this can be done in the Joint Editor. Perharps there is another way to do that. 

Any comment on this matter are welcome

Allstereo

You mean a single method to zero the entire figure in one fell swoop?

I've done it by looping around all actors and zeroing each one, but that's all I can offer. It gives equivalent results to the joint editor button, as far as I can tell.

same as bob - i use the following

import poser

scene = poser.Scene()
fig = scene.CurrentFigure()
parts = fig.Actors()

Zero Rot and Trans

for part in parts:
    if part.IsBodyPart():
        for Parm in part.Parameters():
            if Parm.InternalName() == part.ParameterByCode(poser.kParmCodeXROT).InternalName():
                Parm.SetValue(0.0)
            if Parm.InternalName() == part.ParameterByCode(poser.kParmCodeYROT).InternalName():
                Parm.SetValue(0.0)
            if Parm.InternalName() == part.ParameterByCode(poser.kParmCodeZROT).InternalName():
                Parm.SetValue(0.0)
            if Parm.InternalName() == part.ParameterByCode(poser.kParmCodeXTRAN).InternalName():
                Parm.SetValue(0.0)
            if Parm.InternalName() == part.ParameterByCode(poser.kParmCodeYTRAN).InternalName():
                Parm.SetValue(0.0)
            if Parm.InternalName() == part.ParameterByCode(poser.kParmCodeZTRAN).InternalName():
                Parm.SetValue(0.0)
scene.DrawAll()

Hello EnglishBob and Structure,

Thank you for your feedback. Just to put you in context, I need the "zero rotation  method" to implant a way for finding the global scaling of actors (Smooth as welll as propagating) using the World Matrix method. I will release soon tutorials and related Python scripts about Poser Matrix methods. Now, I am waiting Smith Micro response about an issue with the WorldMatrix method. If no response, I will upload the tutorials and script in the next week with a note about the issue.

Structure: Can I have your permission to insert the code in a script testing the global scaling of actor with the World Matrix method?  I will give full credit to your work. The script will be included with the other scripts related to Matrixmethod.

Allstereo hi, the code was something I found on the internet sometime ago, it may have even be posted here when I was learning basic poser python as the answer to a question I had, I cannot take credit for it, but I am sure since it was posted publicly that whoever authoured it ( I do apologise that I cannot remember, there is a good reason for that ) will not mind it being used.

Hello all,

I have released my tutorial of PoserMatrix method. I have not included a script to remove the rotations at this time. I will probably write a script that we manage all the scaling effect of Poser using both the WorldMatrix and the ScaleMatrix method.
