The first part was setting up a set of "props" which happen to have MAT Poses and one of them has alternate geometry. So, I set them up as figures (CR2s) to make this work. My problem was that I was importing the .obj files with "Center" checked. That was screwing up the alignment of the base geometry and the alternate geometry parts. But unchecking that fixed that problem right away. The other problem was getting them to the same relative scale on import (in order to export them at the proper scales). "Percentage of Standard Figure Size" is rather ambiguous (and misleading from my comparisons with P4 Male). And I have discovered that this percentage is applied to the largest dimension of the imported obj, not the HEIGHT as one would surmise. Very confusing and not explained anywhere that I could find. Now I am content that these are no longer mysteries or mysterious problems.

C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot. C++ makes it harder, but when you do, you blow your whole leg off.
