Sorry, did I say something wrong in my previous message?

No, don't worry.

BTW, the way I scale the hand of Antonia is by selecting the hand and its children, i.e., the fingers, then apply the scale to them all at once.  I did that in DAZ Studio 3.0.1.144.  This technique can be automated by a script in DAZ Studio. If it is a fixed scale value, it can be done by using a pose (.pz2 file).  Note that the same technique may not work in Poser.  The scaling effect in Poser and DAZ Studio seem to have differences.

That's interesting. I seem to remember trying a similar thing in Poser, which led to strange effects. Anyway, if this works in DAZ and the propagating scale method works in Poser, all I need to do is provide said pz2 file for DAZ users and adjust the smooth scaling between hand and forearm, and everyone should be happy crosses fingers
