Content Library: How to keep the folders open?

Eternal Force

Hello guy,

Just a quick question. I've noticed that when I use Content Libary I have to open the same folders over and over again. Every time I need to click on the small triangles to open the subfolders. These triangles tend to get closed every time I click on another product folder. Is there a way to keep my folders open? 

Thank you.

You don't have to click on the triangles, double click the folder to expand it.

In regards to the issue you're talking about, I wasn't able to replicate the folders collapsing if I clicked/double clicked on another one,the only time they collapsed was when i saved a file.

Thank you for your reply. Yes, double clicking on a folder works too. However, it is still a lot of clicking.

Currently, I am at Daz Studio 4.20. When you start to open folders in Content Library, they stay opened for a little while. Then suddenly all of them collapse except the last one that you've opened. Just like it happened on my computer a few seconds ago. I did some quick render and now I have to open all my folders again.

I've noticed that the folders tend to collapse when I save the scene I am currently working on.

That is an excellent product. I use it all the time.

I just right click the folder and using Create Custom Action add it to my Favourites Menu.

I use that a lot too although it is basically a one-off exercise. Just  bookmark my often-used folders once and I hardly ever need to do add to that list of bookmarks. One of the many things that is available at a cost but which, in my opinion, should be a basic feature of DAZ Studio. I use custom actions a lot too - mostly for scripts and for adding things to my toolbars.

You might want to look at the end of http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/software/dazstudio/4/change_log_4_15_0_30#4_15_0_16 and after it the beginning of http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/software/dazstudio/4/change_log_4_15_0_30#4_15_0_17 - features which are available now.
