Bend control hotkey

Hi, is there a way to put the "Bend" slider on a hotkey?

Because I work a lot with the fingers and I hate to go everytime to it and move, I would love if I could put it somehow on my mouse (if the software even accept my mouse...tested: nope... sidemousebutton make nothing if I wanna set it to the hotkey... so I need something other, but I want a hotkey for it).

Sadly there is also no search in the hotkeys....

    The problem with my shortcuts is, that they are... empty... because for some weird reason as I installed Daz, there was not a single shotcut... so I started setting up my own... now I have ~10 or something own and 90% empty...

    I did try to click on some and press set to default, but I still didnt catched all and if I would restore now all to default (I found finally the button for it....) I would have to reset my own too :/

    But maybe I should do that....

     

    the script seems nice, but I guess I will need a better hardware fot it, I was today in our local store, but they didnt had peripherie controllers for 3D work. I know some graphic designers have special controllers to rotate and move.

    Something like this.

    THAT looks crazy... and a bit like a lamborghini mid panel xD and 361€.... (German amazon sorry^^)

    Oh there is also a Version for 450€... with a Display for 3D Modelling... but I guess when I buy that i can also start with Poser + modelling or something^^....

    You might also want to check out the PowerPose pane in Daz Studio. From there, you can control the figure, including hands and fingers, with different mouse movements. It uses right and left click buttons, but doesn't require a fancy mouse at all. It does streamline posing a good deal once you've got the hang of it. The controls take some getting used to, but it's a useful tool. I'm not at my computer to check exactly, but you should be able to find the option to load the pane under Windows > Panes > PowerPose.

    These are awesome, I use it with DAZ (before that with Poser). With cable they are much cheaper (approx. 140 $). Be warned, you will never want to use DAZ without it.

    I wish I could test them... same for a graphic tablet, if I can draw better if I have a pen... because  my drawing skills with my mouse arent soo good :(

    I mean I could buy the hardware test it and if I dont like it, bring it back :D

    I will check youtube if I find videos who showcase it. @Hemi426 but feel free to link me videos how they work if you want :)

    Oh my Holy Fish...

    I used DesignDoll first but it was annoying because the Free Version can not load anything... so after posing for 10+mins ALL is gone and if you press WIN+L to lock your PC the software closes...

    BUT it had this powerPose buttons... I loved that! Its always cool to learn new features...

     

    btw... just btw... there is not maybe a way to draw like in paint/gimp, with an airbrush/eraser/pencil + colors? like I can make the nose red ? :) In the layered image editor did I not saw some controls... I wish there was atleast these basics :/

     

     

     

    ~~~

    these 2 buttons are love... but for the rotate, would I love if you could hold shift or something, that you only rotate left/right and not up/down, to stay on the floor without need to rearrange, sadly its not so easy to move the mouse left/right without goin a bit up/down...
