Ok..new puzzle for me. I purchased a product here, which is a prop. Not a character (Example: outfits, shoes..etc). Now..some props I have purchased here that comes with jewerly..all are positioned in the right place, and when you move the head, they stay. But this other product, that is a prop, that can be an outfit, will not move with the head. The prop stays, and can be very fustrating trying to fit the prop, after posing a Character. Even for animations. How can I fix this. I like the product alot, but only problem is staying with the character. I wrote to the merchant, but no response. Anyone here can help me on this..fixing.

You have to parent the prop to a logical bodypart of the figure after you've positioned them wherever you want them to be. If it is some jewellery like earrings, the head would be logical. A necklace maybe to the neck or chest.

Yesterday's the past, tomorrow's the future, but today is a gift. That's why it's called the present.

K...never did "Parent". New to this technique.

I got it..thanks.. :-)

Those other props are called "smart-props", which means they load already parented to the active figure. When you get your prop positioned and parented the way you want it, click the + sign (to save it) and when it asks you if you want to save it as a smart-prop, say "yes". This way, every time you load your re-saved version of the prop, it will load already parented and positioned.

Now, that is kewl. I got to remember this.

If your item is really a prop (has a pp2 file extension), then do what martian_manhunter says in post #5. Sometimes an item that we think of as a prop, is actually a figure (has a cr2 file extension), in that case it may be a conforming figure, try using; Figure > Conform To, from the Figure menu.
