Posing folders
Hi,
I have been using Studio for many months and I have saved many poses. The predefined poses are catorgized by type, example ktanding, kneeling, stiitng etc. I do not have trouble finding and using the user defined poses (they are in the presets folder). The problem is...
Whenever I save a new user defined pose, it gets put into one BIG folder. It makes finding the desired user defined pose very tedious. I have found the "presets" folder with all the poses and tried to make subdirectories (I used the operating system to do this). I then put the appropriate poses into the new folder but when I try to access them Studio does not display the new subdirectories and the files in them. How can I get Studio to "see" them.

If I make changes to the directory structure using the OS while DAZ is running, I need to right-click the folder I changed and select "refresh" in DAZ, or exit and reload DAZ for the changes to appear.
If you've exited and restarted DAZ and the new structure doesn't appear, I am not sure what is going on.
Are you talking about categories in Smart Content? I think you need to categorize your poses (right click the icon, click "categorize..." and pick your category by expanding the list till you find kneeling, standing or whatever.) It's a bit time-consuming but should work.
PROBLEM SOLVED!
After a lot of expermenting, I found a suitable work around. Instead of trying to create a subdirectory in Posing (in the user interface) I was able to categorize the poses. In categories I found "poses" and was able to create the desired sub-directories. I then categorized the poses in the "poses -> Saved files -> Preset" folder. I now access the desired pose from the categories menu.
