    I want the figure to move 9 not the camera) but I dont want its pose to change.

    I also want to be able to change its pose without it moving back to "0"

    sorry but I dont have the correct terminology

    If you save a scene, the character will return to the same spot when you load the scene again.

    If you want a character pose to move a character to a particular point in space (generally thought to be bad posing practice), then save the character pose as a Pose Preset, and then when being asked what components of the pose are to be saved, tick the 'General' checkbox just off the root character node. Normally this would not be checked, so that you don't move the character in space` when the pose is applied.

    If you pose two characters in a couples pose, make sure that the root node positions are the same (eg 0,0,0) and then move each character to their required position by moving the hip node position. Then the pose preset is saved without ticking the root 'General' checkbox and the couples pose will be recreated anywhere in space provided they both have the same root node position.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards,

    Placement should be set by the figure node (e.g. Genesis 9), offsets for the pose (to keep the feet on the floor or to have two characters interact) should be done with the root node. Don't save the figure node setting with your regular poses and you can mix and match pose and placement, which is how store pose sets should eb set up.
