Sharing Prop Pose Presets with different Props?

in Daz Studio Discussion

I created a prop in Sketchup, exported it as an OBJ and importerd it into DAZ via the FIGURE SETUP (content Type = Prop and Rigging Type = Parametric), arranged the bone Hierarchy and then Created the new PROP1.  I can now save various Poses for PROP1 and apply them to this PROP1 or copies as would be expected.

The problem I am having is that I want to create a 2nd prop, PROP2, virtually identical to the first prop just some material/surface changes, however, when applying the Poses saved for PROP1 to the newly created PROP2, I get either no pose change or only a very partial pose change. 

The number and size of bones in each are identical.  I changed both Prop bone names to be identical as well via the Scene Tab just to be sure the bone names were not the issue.  I have also tried saving both as Pose Preset and Hierarchial Pose Preset.

Any thoughts on what I need to do to fix this would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

    The Scene pane shows labels, not names. Renamng bones can be done by right-clicking with the Joint Editor tool.

    Thanks Richard, that was it.  Is there any other way to rename the bones?  It would seem like the Figure Setup would be the best, easiest and fastest way to change bone names but I found no way to do it.

    If you highlight the bone name and right click on it, you should have a dialog menu with one of hte options being Edit name.
