The route should be: - import the figure (you import it in the main window first) - double-click the figure - now it looks like something is wrong - there isn't - go to edit > Convert to Other Modeller - choose the Vertex Modeller - it appears in the Vertex Modeller (sometimes rather small, but zooming resolves this) I see in your preview above that your figure has four or five parts.You can convert it to one big mesh with a Boolean operation. Or export as dxf and reimport (which might resolve the tiny size in the Vertex Modeller too, now I think about it). The figure I used above was the Casual Woman (Poser 2 or 3 if I remember correctly), in which the clothes were integrated in the mesh. I did not want tot start throwing naked girls around, when we are clearly talking angels.
