Thanks, guys. What I am still not clear on is what the whole animation thing is for in the first place, especially since  I am doing stills. And, like I say, if I am having my character, Amy, let's say, do a sequence of poses (like cooking and eating), for the first pose I would apply the clothing, and then do the simulation. For the second pose, do I have to have her go back to default pose, or clear the drapery of the simulation, in order to go to the next pose? Or do I simply give her a new pose (in which her body is outside of the drapery), and then simply do "calculate simulation" again?

Thanks!
