Here is a big hint: When adding figures to the scene, ALWAYS rename them immediately to their proper name. It seems that CL, DAZ, and other people always name their figures with the generic name of "Figure 1", instead of something descriptive, like "Right Shoe" or "Dress". If the figure is added to the scene with a name like "Figure 1", here's what to do: 1) Using the bottom, left pull-down box, select this figure (it should be last on the list). 2) Using the bottom, right pull-down box, select BODY. 3) Go to Object > Properties (or hit Ctrl-I). 4) In the "Name" box, type in a descriptive name. 5) Hit enter. Repeat for all figures in the scene, as they are added, and you'll never accidentally pose clothing instead of the character. Well, almost never... be sure to pay attention to which figure is selected before applying poses. :) --John
