Please indulge a newbie... whenever I try to introduce a second figure to a scene, I get the 'same scale?' prompt and when the second figure appears, the first one vanishes. How to I get the document window to show me both figures in the same scene? Same thing sometimes happens when I load a piece of clothing... the figure I want to apply it to disappears. It's probably a question that's been asked several times so I apologise in advance.

Yup, a common question, but the only stupid question is the one you don't ask. Answers to this and many other 'newbie' questions is in the FAQ which can be found by clicking on "Backroom Resources" in the banner above. Welcome to the world of Poser. Many of us have already given up on sleep (and full bank balances), to feed our addiction. But I'm sure most will agree the fun and satisfaction we get out of it make it all worthwhile. -- Mark

for a quick answer..... click the double check mark instead of the single one when introducing a new figure ;)

Have a look at AZL's Crowd in the store; a cheap way to populate your scenes without frying your chips!

DigitalDreamer :o) It's coz you're DOUBLE CLICKING on the second character or clothes. Double clicking in Poser means REPLACE, not ADD. One of Poser's many quirks :o) - and a mistake we've all made (I often do it myself even after about 3 years with Poser G) When the "same scale" comes up, you know you've done it again L so just click cancel and try again, this time with the double checkmark :o)
