It is possible - check the "owl3.obj" if you have it. But only in a sense. You are correct that Poser does not allow polygons to belong to more than one group - i.e.: to be in the 'head' group and 'buttox' group simultaneously. ;) That doesn't mean that there can't be a group hierarchy specified in the OBJ file:

g Body Arm Hand Pinky2

Poser does interpret this! I found out the hard way with that damned owl object file while writing my Wavefront OBJ parsing code. And the order doesn't matter. You can have:

g Body Arm Hand Pinky2 (in one place)

and

g Arm Pinky2 Hand Body (in another)

and the grouping is maintained. ETA: I should specify that only one name should be a qualified Pose name. Note that "Body" and "Arm", as mentioned previously, are not valid Poser body parts (internal naming convention).

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