"Make sure your object doesn't intersect itself anywhere..." It did... problem solved :-) Thank you all very much for good, sound and constructive advice. Was much needed and very appreciated :-)

"If you send me/upload the object, I can take a look at it." That is really kind of u :-) I cant upload upload a .3ds object... forum wont allow me and whats more, the noob here cant seem to find ur real e-mail address ;-) If possible could u plz post it or drop me a no txt mail on jacochr@ruc.dk i can reply to ?

"None of that will probably be of any help to you, unfortunately. Were you able to successfully clothify the original, unmodified prop?" Yes i was... was my first thought too =) Are there circumstances under which i can lock the prop by accident ? After ive imported it and aligned it it seems to be unmoveable even by normal translation. This seems to occur when i switch from the Pose room to the Cloth room and back...? Also when i try to drape it it seems locked and the draping sequence status bar is moving from frame to frame until it reaches its far right and then stops, even tho Poser continues to spit out numbers in the main window.

"Didn't really give us much to go on ...." ... my bad :-), was kinda angry when i wrote the post lol In Poser 5 ive take a dynamic clothing prop (a pyjama) which had an open front and i closed the front to make it a sailor-like clothing prop. The poly count has not increased significantly. When i try to drape it, it does not move at all. I mean it doesnt look like Poser is even trying ;-), which made me suspect that i have somehow screwed up the import or made some mess with the prop. Does it make a diff if it is imported/exported as a .3ds? I dont seem to remember it being vital that i put it in a specific folder...? Does it have to be parented to a specific part of the figure on which it is to be draped? Thx for the reply anyways :-)
