Filter G8Fs in Smart Content?

HaddixxHaddixx Posts: 88

When you go to Figures->People-Female in SmartContent it shows all the female figures I have in my libary.  Is there any way to filter this to only show the Gen8 figures?  The only way I have been able to figure out is to load the Genesis 8 Baseic Female and then Smart Content shows only the gen8 figures.  But its then a 2 step process to have to load the basic figure and then the figure I really want.  Secondarily is it possible to sort Smart Content by PA?  Is there any documentation on how to use the search field to filter by different values (assumign you can search by Name, PA, etc).

    If you select any G8F character it should still show items compatible with G8F -- is it not doing this?  Is this a problem with specific figures or any G8F character?

    That part is working but I need to load a G8F character into the scene. What I was hoping to do was get a list of all the G8F figures in my library that I can scroll through in order to select one for loading into the scene.  I was hoping there was a way to filter the Smart Content to see that prior to loading any figures.

    Personally I setup my own Categories for each generation, male and female. Of course, you have to do the work initially to identify and categorise, but just hanging the cursor over each character will pop up a box showing the filename which includes the generation number. Sorting Figures by newest to oldest (or highest to lowest SKU) will help too.

    Thanks @MelanieL.  I did play around with Categories a bit.  I wasn't aware of what they were or how they worked so thanks for pointing me onto them.  It will be a lot of work to categorize all my figures but once done it does seem like it will be a good way to filter figures by generation
