BTW, while I'm trying to trace this problem down, how does one go about the single-axis scaling? Is there a particular something I should be looking for?

 

i7 6800 (6 core/12 thread), 24 GB RAM, 1 gtx 1080 ti (8GB Vram) + 1 Titan X (12GB Vram), PP11, Octane/Poser plugin, and a partridge in a pear tree.

Oh, and a wiener dog!
