I just want to share a tip for posing faster by using a macropad

First download the free scripts from Heryun:

This script allows you to rotate bones x y z.

Then I bought a macropad with 3 knobs and 12 keypads.

I make shortcuts to the scripts

Then I program each knob to hit the script every tick.

One knob to rotate x bone
One knob to rotate y bone
One knob to rotate z bone

And... viola, now I can do what I've imagine for quite some times.

I can pose faster.

The script will add and subtract by a value of 10.
So if you want to smaller value, you need to change it or make another script for smaller value.
And then you can assign the keypad to use the smaller value scripts for a more detail posing.

    I'm sure I'm not to first to think of this, as obviously shown above, but I was imagining a peripheral to pose figures. I'm a traditional artist by trade and did study the figure. I have a wooden pose dummy. I was so itching for something for Daz that would let me pose figures like I was playing with GI Joes, ha!  I need a person with an engineering degree to wire it up and plug into a computer, lol. But seeing what you have below looks so cool. I may give this script a shot for my keyboard. Thanks!

    I've been doing much the same thing for a while with a Stream Deck+ and these scripts. It's been an absolute lifesaver, as I struggle with lots of hand pains and can no longer use a mouse.
