I have been going thru the manual that comes with P7 and have stumbled on something that either I am missing or it is not in there. Now bare with me as this may be hard to explain/put in a question.

When you first load a figure in to the workspace say V4 and in the Parameters/Property tab menu it allows you to change the figure name ie from Victoria4 to "whatever" . Now lets say for arguments sake that I call the figure Doris, I use selected morphs, mats and such. After adjusting to taste it suits what I need. I know I can save it has a pz3 file. But can the figure itself be saved as Doris? 

I ask becuase of working on a comic and other things I would be able to save time by just loading V4/Doris instead of loading V4 and one by one recreating her or even "destroying" the first created scene to just use Doris again.

I hope that makes sense.

Thanks in advance

Why not save Doris to your figures library and set her to your preferred state. That way she will load automatically upon startup?

Yes, open the Figures library, and click on the "+" button.  Where you save her, in your Figures library, is indicative of what the directory structure of your:
 
C:Program FIlesPoser InstallRuntimeLibrariescharacter 

folders' looks like.  

You'll be saving a .CR2, which is just the Poser charcter and/or anything parented/conformed to her.  You'll need to give the .CR2 file another name, but you can use Doris again; and then when you load that .CR2 into a new scene, the Properties tab will still say Doris(regardless of what you named the .CR2)
