The great majority of people who use poser never animate and many use canned poses created by other people as a staring point for stills. as an animator IK is a must have tool!! when I download a free poser figure the first thing i look for is wether it has ik chains and if not i delete the character instead of bothering to set up my own ik chains in posers primative "heirarchy editor" and i even find it an invaluable tool whe creating still poses. people here tend to copy others workflow habits and never bother to learn different and possibly more efficent ways of doing things.. in poser IM sure many people here try navigate through their poser scenes by using the lengthy pull down menu under the document window,or even reaching into the document window trying to grab a figures arm when you can open up the animation pallette, push it over to a corner of your screen. and have a permanent,collapsable,scrollable heirachy listing every scene element for easy selection. Much like the object or scene manager palletts in high end programs like cinema4dxl or lightwave.
