Adding Extended Details to Library Content

Extended details files use an XML extension, and are typically saved when you first save your content to the Poser library. The XML file will have the same filename as the library content item that was saved.

Content creators can add a variety of informative descriptions to their content. This content will appear in the Extended Details panel when an item is selected in the library tree or item list. The extended details panel also allows you to edit or add additional details to the XML file directly from Poser. If you do not have the Extended Details Panel displayed in the library, expand the Library Settings widget and check the Extended Details Panel option in the Display tab.

Enable the Extended Details Panel display in the Library Display Options panel.

Click the Edit button to add or edit existing details. You can add any or all of the following pieces of information for any library content item:
