changed layout - now Scripts menu is gone

I recently switched to city limits lite (in DS4.8), which I like, but then I realized my scripts menu is gone.  By right clicking a pose I can create a custom action and the scripts menu magically reappears, but my old scripts are no longer there.  How do I restore the previous scripts so that they appear in the menu item?

(BTW, I'm surprised that this is the default.  Why would one want the script menu to disappear every time one changes the layout?)

  • Edit>Workspace>Customise. Your custom actions are in their own group on the left, open up the menus tab on the right, then Main Menus, and drag the commands into the Scripts menu (right-click to create the Scripts menu if it doesn't exist). You can, of course, add commands to most other menus too - not, as I recall, the Tools menu as that auto-populates.

    Thanks.  Is it worth submitting a feature request so that this isn't necessary at each layout change?

  • You can load and save menus independently of the rest of the layout - use the Export and Import buttons at bottom left of the Customise dialogue and select the thing you want to export/import in the new dialogue that opens.

    I'm in DAZ 4.12.1 and I still have to way to make Scripts and Favorites menu appear after changing Layout. I've tried to do what Richard said but quite not sure I follow him. I see that the customed menus are still there (customize workspace window) but don't know how to make it reappear on the normal menu panel.

    In the customize workspace window, on the right side choose Menus.  Expand the Main Menu and right-click to add a submenu.  Call it Scripts and place it wherever you want.  Then drag the custom actions from the left side to the new Scripts menu.

    Thank you very much Fixmypcmike. You make my day!
