New to Carrara and Questions Questions.

I have been using Bryce and Poser since versions 4 were released and also have used Hexagon for awhile.

I very much prefer Hard Copy as opposed to OnLine Pdfs etc. I have been through the pdf that came with CP6 several times. I have even ordered the CP5 Manual, just to have a Hard Copy to read.

I want to use a Preset Scene, so I Load a Preset Scene.
OK, now I want to Add a Figure (Cr2).
If I Try OpenCr2, I get a New Scene with just my Figure.
If I Try ImportCr2, my figure comes in soooooo small that I can barely find it to work on it.
I select the FigureModel and then Modifier+Basic DeformersScale. I then change the "Scale" 100% to something like 10000.00. I can then see my Imported figure well enough to move it, rotate it etc etc etc......

Is there an easier way to Import my Poser Cr2 Figure into a CP6 Preset Scene?

I have also tried the BrowserContentPoser 6Figures and dragged and dropped the Figure Cr2. Still soooo small, so I increased the scale to 10000.00

Even if I start with a NewEmpty Scene, my Figure comes in Imports in soooooo small.

What is the best way to place a Figure Cr2 into a CP6 Scene????

Lights and Textures do not seem to be tough for me.
Adding CP6 PropsTerrainsOceans etc aren't any problems either.

Many Thanks for any and all help.
