What did you have selected when you created the magnet?

What geep said.  If you don't have the thing you wanted to deform selected, the magnet won't work.

WARK!

I clicked and double clicked the chest area of the suit itself...even made sure it was selected. and that I clicked on the magnet zone itself. I even tried the magnet object itself, moved both around, with no result.

The "zone" is a 3 dimensional sphere, therefore ...
... We need to make sure the area we want to deform is inside the center of that sphere.

Also, what does the zone's falloff graph look like?

Or maybee you set the magnet value that appears on the morph list to 0?
I've done this on the past many times...

Sound like you first created the magnet and selected after that the body part.

st select the chest and the go to create Magnet and be ensured, it will work.

There's an outside possibility that "Bend" (or maybe it's "Inherit parents bends") isn't turned turned on for the body part the magnet is attached to.

yeah, I always check that, as I turned it off once and had disasterous results, so I always ave it on. Thanks! : )

Glad to be a help! 😉
It seams that poser saves invisible the value even for a deleted magnet so if you add another magnet in the future takes the value of the deleted...
If that value was zero you just get crazy until you realize that!
