Quote - > Quote - Allegedly, the way poser handles single axis scaling might be why we see less height variation. It's why a freak scaled freak 4 can't wear clothes in p7 or below, it's why steph 4's scaling is also useless in the same apps.

Partly true - single axis scaling is bugged and doesn't work correctly even up to Poser 8 (on the agenda to be fixed in P9+) but Stephanie 4's scaling changes are almost all on all three axes, which works in Poser 8+ conformers.  I'm not that familiar with the Freak dials but the S4 stuff is pretty safe, in Poser 8+.

Which is why I specified p7 (poser 7) and below. Knowing now that steph 4 uses 3-axis scaling, does this mean that even that mode of scaling is bugged in versions of poser earlier than 8?  At the release of the figure, there was the same outcry in the daz forums as with the freak 4 that it wasn't poser compatible (if you wanted it to wear clothing, they work fine naked).  I remember unhiding the scaling dials in her and her clothing and trying to get things to fit without much luck.

Raw has a package of scale poses that come with accompanying clothing scale poses.  I don't have them, so I don't know how well they work outside of studio (I would assume they work perfectly in studio), but knowing that they existed was what inspired me to attempt the same with my Duck people.

The "shape of a woman" packages might be similar.  I forget the name of their maker. So while individual character creators have been pretty happy to leave folks the default size, there are people who have been working on packages to provide scale options to apply to those characters.
