Pose utility that easily zeros out parts

Hi,

a couple of weeks ago I remember reading some product information about it easily zeroing out poses, then one thing after another got in the way and now I've totally forgotten what that was. 

So, can anyone recommend any good utilities that easily zero out parts of a pose. 

Thanks

    Oh, yeah, that's the one. Thank you. I'll put it in my wish list. I did try to search for it but, I wasn't getting anything. I even logged out and tried Google. My search has been pants for a while though. 

    Thanks.

    Love the work that RiverSoft Art has put up to make DAZ so much easier to use and I purchased this tool and many more of his, so I hope I am somewhat fine to add that there's a set of free  tools for zeroing the limbs of G3 and 8, M and F respectively available on Deviant, which I was using until this one came out. As said this one here is so much more elaborate and I am glad to have it in my library.

    oh do you mean T poses? I need it for G8M anyway. I hardly use G3M thesedays but, DA is a massive site to search for freebies. Thanks

    You can also do what I do 

    in the parameters tab options menu (as well as some other locations) there are options both to select the children of a bone (all bones lower on the hierarchy) and zero selected bones

     

    So you can select the shoulder, for intsance, hit select children and then zero bones. I use it frequenltly enough that I have made shortcuts for it. I find it easier than presets because its always just 2 clicks never have to navigete anything in the content library

    Thanks, does that work when you've got pose controls dialed in? I'll play with that. For once I'm not rendering. I have seen it but I forget about it. Thanks.

    I'm only finding Zero Figure or Selected. I have seen 'and children' in the past though. I really can't find that at the moment. The zero selected worked a treat on the Post Control though, even the mixed Pose Controls but not the Mixed Pose Controls and manually moving a bone, but, that did work if I slected all the child bones. I don't know why I have used that. I need to stand back a bit more. Now if I can find the 'child bone feature'. :) Thanks

    No, the artist is SpyroRue and his reset poses are available for G3&8 M&F, the G8M version is here:https://www.deviantart.com/spyrorue/art/G8M-Reset-Poses-700458300

    Thanks, I've got those, but the zero feature from the Pose Pane does the best job. The head one doesn't zero expressions and the jaw. They are worth having if you have them in your favourites but, then you can't put everthing in your favourites. :) The selecting of the bones you want to zero is the easiest really in the long run.
