Poser 9? What happened to Poser 8? I only upgraded from Poser 7 to  Poser Pro a couple of weeks ago...

Seriously though... what figures are you using?

Can you pose the figure by selecting a body part from the drop down menu, displaying the parameters window, and spinning the Bend/Twist/etc... dials?

When you try to use the mouse to pose a figure, are you first selecting one of the movement icons in the controls palette?
