Help i can't figure how to use Anatomical elements

OK that sounded bad.  I can see them in the material folder on Smart content (Jones character)  but nothing happens.  Under info it reads 

Metadata: yes

Installed: No

Install Available: Yes

Why did it not install with the character and how do I install it?

    Which generation figure is this? I am going to assume this is Genesis 2 or more recent? Have you bought any of the Pro bundles? The anatomical elements themselves do not come with the base figure, only the pro bundles. The characters themselves will still have material files for this, and it sounds like that is what you are seeing, the material file and not the anatomy itself.

    Uhhh... Material. That's not the Anatomical Element itself. The material defines the surfaces of a thing, but it's not the thing itself.

    First, you need to attach the Anatomical Element to your figure. That's a Geografted prop, found under Anatomy in Smart Content. (Hopefully you have the anatomical prop for the figure that you want to stick it on.)

    Then you can apply the materials to the prop.

    ...

    As for the other part, why didn't it install? Dunno. What did you use to install it? DIM? Daz Connect? You can always try manually istalling the package if all else fails.
