I have that prop and if anyone has anything Stonemason, you know his shit is HUGE. Is there a way to move your model to the exact point of your prop background without using the dials? Three odd years using Poser and you'd think I'd know.

The following might work - if I understand your problem right.
1) Select your model/figure
2) Choose Figure->Set Figure Parent;
3) Pick the prop you want the figure to move to
4) Select the BODY actor of your figure, and set the xTran,yTran and zTran values to zero.
5) Optional: choose Figure->Set Figure Parent and choose the UNIVERSE object.
This will move your figure to the exact location of that particular prop. You may have to twiddle the dials a little to correct the positioning, but this is it in a nutshell.

Personally if it was me, I'd just go into top camera mode and grab the figure and drag them to the building you want them in front of, then back to main view to tweak if needed ;)

I have that set but haven't played with it yet, but a lot of his you can also go ahead and delete parts that you're not going to have in the pic if you want to cut down on render time and stuff. That alone would make it easier to see where you wanted to put your person ;)
