@patlane, the other thing that distinguishes how Poser handles naming actors vs props, is the keyword prefix before the name. A figure's body parts are all "actor" types, while props are all "prop" type. You can make a figure using prop actors, but that prompts Poser to add a numeric suffix each time a prop of that type is loaded into the scene, to distinguish them. An actor, when part of a figure, gets the figure sequence number appended to its internal name, like BODY:2, etc. You can't reuse the same actor name within a figure, but you can have multiple figures of the same type, as the :number suffix distinguishes them.
