Install D3D's Unhide dials script in your Poser scripts, it can show or hide dials.

Do you still have the original unedited CR2 for the globe that was created when you made the figure?

Load the figure using the original CR2

Open your Python scripts window and load the Unhide dials script to a blank button.

Select a body part and start the script.

Pick the dials you want to hide.

Do this for the remaining body parts.

Set Use Limits.

Set the limits for your visible rotation dials as applicable.

Save the new CR2.

Open that CR2 in the text editor of choice and change forceLimits 0 to forceLimits 1 where needed.

Save the edited CR2. This should now show the same behavior in Poser and DS as far as the dial limits and visibility is concerned.

When manually editing CR2 files you may want to consider commenting out lines, by adding // to the beginning of the lines you don't want Poser to read, rather than deleting during experimenting; afterward you can delete the lines you've decided are unnecessary.

Be aware that some changes to the CR2 can have drastic affects on Poser and your system so be real sure you understand what you are altering before you commit to a change.
