Well first off, as a "Technical Writer" you should know what a "Table of Contents" is and how to use it! If you had bothered to read your manual you would have seen "Chapter 9: Posing Figures where it explains just what you do with figures that are in your view port! Second, as a "Technical Writer" you know you don't have to "Read the whole manual" just to find out one aspect of the program. If the "Table of Contents" doesn't point you to what you need there is also an Index in the back where you can look up specifics such as "Figure" or "Figure Posing".

The reason "Andy" is preloaded is because if there wasn't anything loaded at all, New Users would HAVE to pick up the manual just to learn how to load a figure. He's there to give said new user a jumpstart on that for people who refuse to read those technical manuals that you claim to write. They can load Poser and Zowie! There's already something in your scene to push and pull on and play with.

That being said, it wouldn't have hurt the technical writers of the Poser manual to put in a chapter all about Andy, but.... who would read it?

 

And Miss Nancy, I wasn't "Chastising" the OP who asked the question. I was chastising the know it all "Technical Writer" who said you shouldn't have to read the manuals.
