Perhaps you are using P4, or for some reason the Python scripts don't work. I that case, this is how I would do it. Load the target figure into Poser. Zero all translations and rotations of the hip and Body. Zero the figure in the Joint Editor. Position the props in the desired location relitive to the figure. Save the props using Select Subset'. Note that you can't save as a smartprop when using select subset, you will have to add that manually in a text editor. Open the pp2 you created in a text editor. Do a case sensitive 'Search & Replace' of all instances of 'parent' with 'smartparent'. At the moment the smartparent for all props will be 'UNIVERSE', so you will have to do another search for 'smartparent' and type in the names of the actors that the props should be smartparented to.
