PoseSaver 1.4.8 – Minor Fix Update​

Small fix this time — thank you fttp for reporting the issues!


Fixes in this update:

1. Missing Arrow Buttons
   When repeatedly using “Save New Pose”, thumbnails stopped showing after 8 entries and the arrow buttons disappeared.
   This is now corrected — pagination shows properly again.
2. NullReferenceException on Pagination
   Some users received this error when saving multiple poses in a row:
   CreatePaginationControls: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
   This has been fixed and pagination is now stable.
3. Character Distortion When Clicking Thumbnails
   In some cases, clicking a newly saved pose thumbnail after “Save New Pose” caused the character’s shape to distort.
   This happened mostly with certain presets.
   The issue is now resolved.
4. Handstab UI Adjustments
   The handstab section has been cleaned up and improved for better usability.

All known issues from the report are now fixed.(if i missed something please tell)
Thank you for helping me improve PoseSaver!

Update 1.4.7 – Timeline Auto-Keyframe Protection​

✔ Fixed: Timeline overwriting animations when loading poses​

Some users experienced that loading a pose in PoseSaver would trigger Timeline’s “Auto-keyframe all controllers”, causing Timeline to automatically create new keyframes and overwrite existing animation data.


This is now fully resolved.

---

What’s New​

🛡 Automatic Timeline Auto-Keyframe Protection​

PoseSaver now detects any active Timeline plugin and temporarily disables its auto-keyframe system while a pose is loading.


This prevents Timeline from generating unwanted keyframes.

How it works​

• Detection
  PoseSaver scans all atoms for Timeline and uses reflection to access the internal autoKeyframeAllControllers flag.
• Protection
  Before loading a pose, PoseSaver disables auto-keyframing on all detected Timeline instances and stores their original state.
• Restoration
  Once the pose is fully applied, all Timeline instances are returned to their previous settings automatically.

Works with different Timeline versions (includes safe try/catch handling).

---

Benefits​

• No more accidental overwriting of Timeline keyframes
• You can load poses freely while animating
• Seamless and invisible — no buttons, toggles, or setup required
• Timeline settings are restored exactly as they were before pose load
• Fully safe and non-intrusive

---

User Experience​

You can now:

• Use PoseSaver while animating in Timeline
• Keep auto-keyframe on without worrying
• Switch poses rapidly with zero risk to your animation work

The fix is automatic — the only thing you’ll notice is that your Timeline keyframes stay exactly where they should.

Thank you Babul for pointing this out!

- "Link to: [pose name]" buttons to connect poses
- Shows all connected poses with ability to remove them
- Flow Timing section with delay slider (0-10 seconds)
- "▶ Test This Flow" button for instant testing
- Yellow save reminder to persist connections

3. Flow Navigation (Main Screen)
- "Scene Graph Navigation" section
- Current pose indicator showing loaded pose and connection count
- "Next (Follow Story Flow)" button to navigate the flow
- Auto-advances if only one connection
- Shows choice prompt if multiple connections

4. Flow Delay System

- Coroutine-based delay system for smooth timing
- Public currentPoseIndex for UI access

All features are fully functional and tested.(but if you find anything then as always i appreciate feedbacks )

How to Use Scene Graph Flow System

Creating a Branching Story:

Step 1: Create Your Poses
- Create 3+ poses (e.g., "Greeting", "Happy", "Sad", "Flirty")
- Save each pose using the pose list

Step 2: Link Poses Together
- Select first pose → Click FLOW tab
- Set Delay Before Next slider (e.g., 2 seconds for pacing)
- Click "Link to: [pose name]" buttons to add connections
- You can link to multiple poses for branching paths

Step 3: Test Your Flow
- Still in FLOW tab, click "▶ Test This Flow from This Pose"
- Watch it navigate automatically (or show choices if multiple paths)

Step 4: Save Your Work
- Go back to main screen
- Click "Save Preset" (or connections will be lost!)

Using Flow in a Scene:

Auto-Navigation (Single Path):
- Load a pose from the list
- Click "Next (Follow Story Flow)"
- Waits for delay → auto-navigates to next pose

Choice Prompt (Multiple Paths):
- Load a pose with 2+ connections
- Click "Next (Follow Story Flow)"
- Waits for delay → shows choice buttons
- Click your choice → navigates to that pose

Current Pose Info:
- Main screen shows: "Current: [pose name] (X flow connections)"
- Always know your flow state

That's it! Create interactive, branching pose sequences like a visual novel or interactive story.

PoseSaver – Update v1.4​

This update focuses on stability, workflow improvements, and a cleaner pose-switching experience.
Several core systems have been refined to make PoseSaver more reliable and creator-friendly.

---

Smooth Transition Removed​

The “Smooth Transition” option has been fully removed from both UI and internal pose logic.
This eliminates the physics drift and instability it caused, resulting in:

• Faster pose switching
• More accurate controller placement
• More reliable physics after pose load

Pose changes are now instant and stable.

---

Improved Trigger-Based Pose Flow​

You can now control pose order using PoseSaver’s built-in trigger system.
This allows:
