Hi, I would greatly appreciate if someone could help me identify the issue I have with IK for newly created figures.

Once I create IK chains and turn IK ON, when I try to move figure's hands and feet a bit further from the body, outlined object for hands and feet appear outside the selected object that I move. When I release the object that I'm moving the outlines disappear. This seems to be the indicator that something is wrong with the figure setup.

When I pose the figure while IK is ON and when I save the project and reopen it, the pose is completely ruined since both feet and arms are now rotated to some "unnatural" position. The pose and the animation is now completely useless since limbs are no longer positioned properly.

Also, when I pose the figure with IK turned ON, and when I turn IK OFF, suddenly hands and feet move to some other position and the pose is ruined again. This is happening with every figure I setup. I have the same issue in both Poser Pro 2014 and Poser Pro 11.

I am not sure if I am explaining the issue well, so I have attached a link to the video that will probably present the issue better. VIDEO LINK

I'm really stuck here so any suggestion is more than welcome.
