so let's say i'm finetuning morph settings or surface settings for a character.
is there a way that i can save the adjusted parameters as a text list, so i can compare them to the settings on another version of the character?
loading multiple versions of a character into a scene and toggling back and forth between can be kind of confusing after a while. screencapping settings gives me something like three to six captures per character version when i'm dealing with complex settings like morphs and surfaces. and notebooking variables by hand surely does take a while...and it's hard to keep that info organized well enough for it to be useful.
any suggestions?

You could probably fairly quickly write a script to do that - just go through the nodes in the figure, get the various controls, and send the bone name and the values to a file.
hah! :)
thanks, richard. i've been thinking that it was probably about time to get a handle on dazscript for a couple of other reasons. this may be the nudge that pushes me over the edge.
