Hello,

I have looked for a solution for months but I can't find one anywhere.

I have a smartprop parented to G2F right hand ( or V4 or Genesis ) and I have made poses for the character using that prop but the prop is not always in the same place in the hand so if I save the pose as a pose preset, when I reload it the smart prop is not in the right place.
I have found out that it works fine only if I save the pose as a hierarchical pose preset ... but what is that preset ? I have found no information about it ...

So I wonder if it is possible to save a pose with a smart prop that is not always in the same place ?

Thanks for your help .....

    As you said hieralchical pose preset work .
    and it was offered for the purpose I believe.

    it can save pose for not only prop,also for different parentend figures too.
    but when save and apply it,, child figure, needed to be parented with other figure under hip node hieralchy. not parented with root node,
    (or if it has been removed the problem, I did not try again,,)

    then without using hieralchical poze preset,, I have saved poze preset,, such way,,

    1. Actor pozing,

    2. load smart prop. it become child of Actor hand (or other nodes) and postioned in hand.

    3 change Actor position and pozing, and adjust position or rotation of smart porp,
    manipulate by universal tool with tool settling Local cordination (usually axis change correctly)
    or as you like.

    4. save pose preset1 for figure. save pose preset 2 for prop parented Actor node,.(select prop )

    5, when restore pozing, I apply these poze preset for figure first, then apply preset2 for prop (select prop)
    which must be parented the Actor hand node, usually work without problem.

    or you have any case which could not work for you?

    As Noted above the Smart Props will need Posing and A saved Preset for the Prop for each pose you create. The Default Smart Prop pose is ONLY to load the item for the ONE set of content it came with or a BASE load to start from. It will not adjust properly to each pose the figure can be placed into. Nor will it auto adjust to your POSE on its next load. You will need to save Both the Figure Pose and the Prop pose each time as Kit has explained.
