Using Preset Hands

When you’re done posing a hand, you can save it to the Hands category in the Library. Hand poses are a subset of a figure pose, meaning that figure poses include the hands but hands don’t include figures.

Use Hand poses to pose a character’s hand and fingers.

The Hands library folder includes various subcategories. When selecting preset hand poses for your figure(s), pay attention to the subcategory from which you choose them, as You can only apply specific hands to the corresponding figures. For example, you can only apply Poser 2 Fig. Hands to Poser 2 figures.

To use a preset hand pose:

1. Click a figure to select it.
2. Open the Library palette, then open the Hands category and your desired subcategory.
3. Double-click the pose you want to use. A dialog appears asking if you wish to apply the preset to the left or right hand. Make your selection and click OK.
