Weird problem with one figure in the viewport (SOLVED)

One of my figures behaves a bit odd when I click on it.

I can't move hands, head or anything in the viewport. I have to click the figure in the scene tab and use the tools in the parameters tab or the power pose tab to change the pose. Premade poses works properly.

I have tried to load the figure in different scenes as well as solo. No difference. Nothing can be changed via the viewport.

Any ideas how to fix this?

    Not sure I understand your question. I am just trying to move (for instance) the hand in the viewport through click and drag.

    @Jaderail
    V5

    There is a Difference in the Different tools. Not all of them will let you MOVE the figure as they are designed to do other things. Which TOOL are you using when you try to pose the figure in the Viewport?

    The Universal Tool.
    If i load three different V5 figures, I can move the hands by click and drag on all of them but one, using The Universal Tool.

    Okay here is the issue still not clear, is it three DEFAULT V5 figures as in just V5 or three characters for V5? And if characters which three? Also is it always the Same character that can not be posed? All that info can help us help you.

    When I say "different figures" I mean three different versions of V5 made by me. Different only in the aspect of the morphs I have used. Morphs that come along with the V5 and Genesis.

    I am not sure if "figure" is the correct term. To me, there are three different characters I made from the V5 modell. There is a slim chance that I did use Genesis or Genesis 2 for some of them if that is important and makes a difference.

    I have Gabi, Bree and Tori (but I guess those aren't "figures" in the real sense of the word). All came either with Daz Studio or the V5 bundle. (I have also Riley but I know I haven't used her in this case.)
    I do have M5 as well but I am darn sure she isnt based on him! :)

    If you select a bone of the unmoveable figure and in the Parameters pane click on the Display group on the left is the Selectable button set to On? I suspect not, in which case you need to expand the whole figure (right-click on it in the Scene pane), then select all its bones (click the first, shift-click the last) and click the Selectable button in Parameters until it is On.

    Thx for getting me on track. The solution was in the scene tab but was even easier than you suggested. I have some time clicked an "X" i the "S"-column in front of the figure. A check mark solved it.

    Now I know what the "S"-column is for... :)

    Yes, the S column is the same as the Selectable button in Parameters - but I was thinking it was going to be a bone issue, and using the S column one bone at a time would have been painful.
