In P4 and P5 (don't know about P6) you can't apply any pose to anything, unless there is a figure is in the scene. You don't even get the double check marks at the bottom of a pose pallet untill one figure is loaded.

Given that there is a figure in the scene, you can apply poses (including MATs and any other type) to unparented props, so long as you address the prop as an actor, eg:

actor box_1

NOT

prop box_1

P.S. "$CURRENT" only works in P5 and up, in P4 you have to address the prop by name.
