I'm modifying a body part of an existing Poser figure, intending to graft it onto a copy of the standard figure to make a weird creature. (It's a 6-legged cat, if you must know; any Honor Harrington fans here?) I've imported the modified object as a prop and have used the group tool to create groups for the new appendages, in preparation for spawning the props to assemble the thing. (N.B., I'm doing the grouping in the Pose Room, not the Setup Room... since I don't have a whole body yet. I intend to replace the figure's body part with my modified object, then go into the Setup Room to make bones for the extra legs.) However, when I click on "Create Perspective UVs" in the Group Tool window, Poser crashes. (Mac Type 2 error, a memory-related bug.) I'm using Poser Pro Pack on a Power Macinosh G4 dual processor 450, with 100 MB RAM assigned to Poser. So, what is this function supposed to do? I figured it was a basic UV mapper to produce a texture mapping template. No big deal, I can just use the UV Mapper utility when I'm done, but this would have saved a step.
