Why the hell is poser 4 turning my figures invisable when I use depthcue? I tried turning off all trans levels and that did even work.

Maybe they are too far back (-z-direction) from the object closest to the camera.

Depth Cueing is a transparency mask applied to objects in a progressivly greater amount based on the object's distance from the camera relative to the distance from the camera to the farthest polygon in the camera's field of view. You can cheat it somewhat by placing an invisible dummy prop much farther down the camera's viewing axis, thereby reducing the percentage of DQ that will be applied to the forground objects.

As Nance said, put a prop into the scene, a primitive sphere or cube will do, and experiment with Ztrans of the prop to get the effect you want.

That why, Thanks

Sheesh! Even I can't follow that sentence now. You'd think someone would invent a punctuation symbol to hang off the end of a word to indicate the beginning and end of a subordinate clause a phrase or separate items in a list.
