THis is a bug going back to the first release. It happens usually at high magnification such as if using Poser figures at their native size. I'd mentioned it before SR1 came out and was told that it was corrected, but it wasn't. A work around is to use one of the Poser related scaler programs to increase and decrease the scale of the figure before importing it. I say use these programs because changing the scale natively in Carrara can cause distortions when moving back into Poser. Most annoying since I use Carrara to model for Poser and vice versa (figures from Poser to Carrara, and one of the better features of Carrara 1 and 2 over "higher" end programs was the ability to work with Poser figures in their native scale. I've probably tried every change (not for this reason, but I even upgraded graphics cards while looking for a fix.) and can't find a fix. You can learn to work around this without rescaling. The points are "off set" and you need to move the pointer around until the 'point', 'line, or 'vertex' icon appears. It works but it's incredably clumbsy. I hope if you hear from Eovia with anything positive you publish it here. mike
