I read a passing reference to editing the pose dots so that they can turn IK on and off. Can anyone explain to me exactly how this is done?

Thank you.

you can make any pose into a posedot.  just rename it "poseDot_xx.pz2" (xx=any number 1 thru 9) & place it in your dots/PoseRoom folder under your Runtime.  i usually make mine #9 so i don't accidentally overwrite it.  i think there's also a way to make it read-only but someone smarter will have to tell you how to do that bit.   here's an IK-off pose for AM as an example.  hope this helps! 

{

version
 {
 number 4.01
 }

figure
 {
 inkyChain     LeftLeg
  {
  off
  }
 inkyChain     RightLeg
  {
  off
  }
 }
}

Thank you. This is a big help.
