When you aren't using the cloth room, you don't worry about the frame slider.  You simply pose your figure at frame 1 and carry on.

The only time you have to worry about the frame slider is if you are doing animation or running a cloth room simulation.

Just like they used to make cartoons.  They  used to put parts of the movement on various pages and by the end of all of them, the figure was running.

ok I gotcha now!
