Wow, that was quick! :-) face_off: I've used the crease option. It is supposed to hold the boundaries of a mesh in place. Unfortunately, smooth sometimes ignores it. It's a hardache. Smooth can be such a big help, but it is quite a primadonna. It wants a perfect mesh. Must have four polygones around a regular vertex, two around a boundary vertex, otherwise it will do strange things. Currently, I try to avoid the seams. I think Poser internally welds the seams anyway, so a little displacement there is okay. Just not too much. At the moment, those hair problems don't bother me much. Hair can always be pulled in place by magnets. Lots of times, one has to do that, anyway (or ignore it, if one's as lazy as I am). If I were to develope a product, these would of course be important considerations. richardson: Thanks! Great tip! This should even work along the seams, if I use "crease".
