Hello, I am trying to add a UI button, which once pressed to load a previously created pose. So, I am adding the button, for Receiver atom I select Person, for Receiver PosePresets and for Receiver target - LoadPresetWithPath. The problem is that it only sees .vap files, but all poses and pose presets that I am saving are saved in .json. What am I doing wrong? Is there any way to save poses and pose presets on .vap file or to make button open .json files? Thank you.
 
Best to use "Pose Presets" tab more flexible then legacy "Control & Physics 1" presets (pose load/save).
Presets tab saves as .vap inside Custom\Atom\Person\Pose (by default doesn't include Root Node, but you can toggle it)
Legacy presets saves as .json inside Saves\Person\pose (includes Root Node position)

EDIT:
More info about what is stored with each preset here Preset Definitions

You should be able to manually load your current "legacy" poses, but then go to the Pose Presets tab and save it as a new preset. This should then give you a version you can trigger with a button.
