That solves the soft-select problem.  But now the verteces are in the wrong place when I try to load the Poser morphs.  In Poser, the figure explodes because the obj is too large, even though I import the CR2 file to Carrara.  I've tried exporting from Carrara with "in local coordinates" checked and unchecked.  Is there something to check when opening the CR2 in Carrara, as opposed to when exporting the obj?

So far, I can either import the Poser figure obj file to Carrara, but then soft select won't span body parts, or I can open the CR2 in Carrara (or load from the content browser), but then the exported geometry explodes the morphs inside Poser.

I'm so close.  Aargh.
