I import a P5 figure with dynamic hair into Carrara Pro 4.1.1 using the TransPoser 2 plugin. Then I re-size the figure to the same scale as my furniture. But the hair moves in the opposite direction when re-sizing the Poser object. I have the entire model selected. Is this normal for now?

It does go wacky when you scale it manually. I hadn't noticed this before because I usually import for animations and don't adjust the first keyframe. The solution/work-around is to adjust the scale of the character on import with the import dialog box. It should be scaleable although. ;)

I'll look at it later. I suspect the hotpoint for the hair is not where it should be?

Changing the hot points didn't fix anything. But I noticed that the hair was linked to the body, So I grouped the hair with the body instead and now I can scale the body and the hair scales with it correctly.

I didn't try the grouping thing yesterday - no time :-P Grouping usually fixes many things but I hadn't tried it yet with Dynamic Hair. Seems like simply linking it should work but that's only if the world behaves according to how I think it should :-D
