Poser Props going AWOL

Got an interesting problem. I was working on a project, saved and closed down for the day. When I fired it up again the next day, I couldn't make two of the figures show, even though they appear in the list of figures. I can do everything except actually see the damn thing! The dials all work, I can access all the body parts, they show up in the hierarchy editor (and yes, they are set visible). They just won't show in the working window, nor will they render. Any idea what's going on? Thanks for any help.

If you are using Poser 4, sometimes a corrupted obj rsr will do that. Try deleting them. Poser will rebuild them when you open the file.

I haven't had it happen in a very long time. But if it is props we are discussing, try to reparent the items in question.

Did you remember to turn the universe back on after finishing with the hierarcy window?

I just remembered similar problem I had a long time ago.

Did you have any of your figures parented to props?

It can cause that sort of problem with figures disappearing.

Props should always be subordinate to figures and never the other way around.
