Folders for non-DAZ content

Is there any way to change the location of content to something that makes sense to me?  

For example... I downloaded some content (from a non-DAZ source) which is a building.  I can find the folder (directory) where the building is but it is not where one would expect it to be.  The building is located under the folder "figures" of "My library" where it probably should be in the "props" folder.  How can I rearrange the location of things so it makes sense to me?  Can I put content downloaded from a non DAZ source so that it appears in one of the DAZ default folders.  Also, I purchased from DAZ "Fit control"... It is a script so it should go into the scripts folder but it is not put there.  I can't remember where it is so I have to search for it.

    Fit Control appears under shaping in the SmartContent view.

    I know where "Fit Control" is!  I just used this product as an example for what I would like to do.  Let's say I made a folder called "My Library/ Scripts"  (there is no such folder.)  How do I change "Fit Control" from where it is to where I want it to be which would be "My Library/ Scripts"?

    Sorry if I did not make my intent clear.

    Moving Daz content is not a good diea as it may cause confusion if there's an update. It's better to use categories to arrange things, and leave the files on disc where they land.

    You can set up your own categories inside of Daz as Richard stated.  That way, you only have to find them once and put them in the category you want.  I have examples of my own category system and how to set it up here. How I organize my Custom Categories Super easy to do, and if you start now, before you had a lot of content, it will be much, much easier to keep up with.

    Sorry, I misinterpreted your example as a question :)

    I know what you mean, though, as I have some items I have to search for because they aren't necessarily logically placed.
