Quick way to "update" G3F in a scene?

Is there a quick way to "refresh" G3, so that morphs added into data/Daz 3d/Genesis 3/Female/Morphs show up in the copy of G3F that's loaded into a scene? I know loading a character will do this, but that's the opposite of "quick" IME. Something is wrong with my install of G3F; when I bend her shin, her knee develops this huge divot. I reinstalled G3F Starter Essentials and disabled every genx morph, no luck. Then I moved the entire Morphs folder up out of the Daz folder structure, and her knee is back to normal. I have a ton of morphs, so I'm going to need a way to quickly update G3F in a scene to check as I add morphs back in, if I don't want to go nuts in the process. Or some other method altogether, if anybody has any suggestions.

    Actually, it's looking like it won't be too bad, using ye olde process of elimination, and moving large blocks of morphs back in and checking.

    G3F does not embed moprhs when you save - they are still loaded from the asset files. So any chnages you make will affect your saved scene too.

    K, I've narrowed it down to a handful of JCM morphs that look like they were created by genx. Weird part is, they were in Morphs/Daz 3d/Base; I thought genx only put morphs into the GenX folder. I'd certainly prefer it that way. I'm definitely going to have to make sure not to transfer controller morphs willy-nilly with genx in the future.

    Richard: right, but I didn't mean saved scenes, I just meant in terms of updating the G3F one has loaded in Daz Studio. E.g., I remember someone recommending using a trick to "refresh" a loaded copy of G3F, i.e., to get a morph added to the asset hierarchy AFTER G3F was loaded to show up in DS. The trick was to load a character preset, then "undo" it; the character preset would force G3F to "refresh," i.e., force the new morph dial to show up, and it would remain after the character preset itself was undone. I was wanting some quicker way to "refresh" a loaded figure in this fashion. But it turns out, it didn't take long to hunt down the problem.
