Boni,
Thank you for your instructions for adding shadow catching to Firefly renders in EZDome.
However, when I look in my Primitives Library in Poser 11 Pro, I do not see a prop named "roundgroundplane". Can you suggest where I might find it?

First. The shadow catcher described by Snarky is strictly for firefly renders. Because of the pbr nature of superfly at the moment in Poser true shadow catching is not possible. I faked it with a glass like surface that I can't quite duplicate ... but am working on. Just use SG's shadow directions for firefly renders in the meantime.
Here is your instructions.
- in EZDome add Sun for light.
- Library>props>primitives>roundgroundplane
- in the material room, Poser Surface root node bottom area is "shadow catcher only" check that box
This should help you accomplish what you want.
We sort of cross posted ... I hope this helps any way.
