If you rotate 2 axis to 90deg the third will appear to quit working. This is a "singularity" and it's a limitation of the Euler rotation system in Poser. Some people call this effect "gimbal lock"

Thank you for this information , it is something new to me though in the case above I only needed to rotate around two axis and the remaining two worked the same.

It will try to use Gizmo though I choose Poser above some other applications exactly because of its dials.

If you use Posers direct Manipulation tool it can rotate through the singularity in most cases.
