Ah ha, the good or bad doctor in this case, has finally publicly admitted that he is really a "Peeping Tom" by taking quick look into all the rooms!
Can't wait for your hints, tips and tricks on the most complained about, hated room in the world; the Setup Room!

The "View Magnifier" is available in the Pose Room, also. Play with it, you'll like it.
Zoom In ... Zoom Out ... Reset Camera (use a "Dot") ... Have fun !
Here's a friendly tip ...
Before you use the "View Magnifier" set a Camera "Dot" so you can return quickly to your original camera view.
Using the "Material Select" tool ... Next ...

!!! CAUTION !!!

In the "Trial & Error" Dept.
If we "Apply..." the change(s) to the figure, it can NOT be undone.
Note - If we accidentally do this and then change our mind about the change,
we may need to start over with a new figure.
Consider spawning a Morph Target (MT) instead because it can be undone, i.e., deleted.
