I'm having much the same issues as everyone.  I love the way Poser 8 shows you what was automatically dialed in, but wish I could dial differently into the body.  I don't remember having issues like these in Poser 7, but next time I see something happen I'll see if it duplicates in P7.

Jules53757:  Are you saying that somehow selecting different bodyparts of a figure before loading the clothing helps alleviate this problem?
