I have not been able to reproduce this problem, which makes it tricky to fix.
I realise that it is described as randomly manifesting, but if there was some way you could narrow down the situations in which it occurs then I will try again.
The fact that the Sync button does not help is an important clue, though. The Sync button should work, but only does its thing if it believes there is a valid scene file (remember that EZMat can be running even when a scene has been closed or before one has been loaded...). EZMat relies upon Poser to tell it when there is a valid scene file, so maybe there is a problem with that communication. If it doesn't think there is a valid scene file then that would also explain why there is no Figure/Actor recognised too.
I'm away from Poser until Tuesday so can't do anything practical until then. In the meantime, see if you can find out anything more about this issue. When I get back on Tuesday I'll build a special test version of EZMat that checks for the presence of a valid scene in a different way and also outputs some debugging information. If any of you would be willing to test it for me then drop me a pm and I'll send you a link to the test version. Do remember that I'm on UK time :-)
