I am having much problems to use dresses-skirts-miniskirts for V4 and V3 in Sit Positions.
Just don't get it right.!!  Rather frustrating!!
Miniskirts are much above legs. Skirts do also  not look good. Dresses are not conforming right either.

Poses look nice without ANY clothes but not with Dresses and Skirts, Miniskirts. I am using Poser 5 and 6.

Any tips-Suggestions?????
Much grateful for responses!! 

Uta.

Best advice is to use dynamic clothing for sitting poses unless the maker included a  sit down morph in the clothing article 
or maybe you could export it out as an OBJ 
import it back in and parent it to the hip 
go to the cloth room and clothify it
this will make it dynamic

You might as well PAY attention, because you can't afford FREE speech

Zero Vicky at frame 1, pose her at frame 15--------Select the hip of the Dress/skirt and enter the cloth room, create a new simulation, hit "Clothify" you have the hip selected so hit OK, now click "Collide against" and choose the abomen. hip, buttocks and thighs of vicky, click ok and then hit the "Calculate simulation" button a few minutes later you should have the desired result......Steve

PS Zero Vicky at your fav frame then export the hip part of the dress and you'll have a morph target for later..

Yes, Dynamic clothing is the way to go when you are wanting to use sitting poses.  Either that or magnets or lots of post work in a graphic program after you have rendered.

Here are some tutorials on how to use dynamic clothing in the cloth room:

Another nice thing about dynamic clothing is that you can easily use clothing on various figures.

Here are some places you can get some free dynamic clothing to try:

It's also possible to make conforming clothing into dynamic clothing:

And it's possible to take a conforming outfit and work with it in the cloth room so that parts of it act dynamic.

Until I started working with dynamic clothing all of my figures were standing nearly upright because of the problems with not being able to get the dresses to fit over bent legs.

There is a small learning curve, but it's not hard and if you get stuck you can always ask someone here for help. And it's well worth taking the time to learn. 

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi

How's this for sitting?

I find it takes more than just making the dress dynamic to do poses like this, though.  For one thing you get an ugly mass of squished polygons on the inside of the bend at the hip, where the dress folds in on itself.

I include a pre-form morph to help the cloth room, seems to work fine.
