The Advanced Figure Manager 2 is a completely reworked version and does much more than the first release. Designed as plugin style, it can be extended to increase your needs. The core version comes with 6 plugins: Hierarchy, Figures, Props, Actors, Lights and Cameras.
The Hierarchy plugin displays the Posers object in a hierarchical tree. It is similar to the Posers hierarchy palette. But the Advanced Figures Managers Hierarchy plug-in does more:
multiple selection;
drag and drop to conform the chosen figure(s) to the selected figure;
drag and drop to parent the chosen prop(s) to the selected figure/prop. When dragging prop(s) on a figure, a popup menu will appear to choose the target actor.
Hide or show figure with or without its children.
And much more...
The Figures plugin displays all the figures included in the scene. Conformed figures are organized and are displayed directly below the parent figure. No need to dig through all the figures to find the correct clothes. Wanna hide the conformed figures ? No problem, just close the tree branch to hide it! It's just one click!
The Props plugin displays the props from the scene. You can easily filter the displayed props to show only the props from the currently selected figure.
The Actors plugin displays the list of actors from the currently selected figure as a hierarchy tree. One simple click on an actor will select it in Poser - very simple! But as you may not want to navigate through all actors from a figure, you can also select a start actor or create presets to display only the parts you need.
The Lights plugin displays the lights from the scene. A little dynamic thumbnail allows to easy identify the type of light (spot, point, infinite or image base). What is a dynamic thumnail? Just click it to popup the color dialog selection. This plugin also include the new Light Wizard, which allows to create any light easily.
The Cameras plugin display the cameras from the scene, categorized in four groups (main, objects, axonometrics and custom). It allows to create new cameras, change the viewport display, etc... The plugin also offer the possibility to easily change the camera view or only select the camera.
Because seeing it working is better than seeing static screenshots, here is a video overview of the plugins found in this product. It does not show every features, but just displays some key features.
