Over the years I've spent many many hours building my category list of DAZ Studio models. Dragging icons into multi-structured trees that are my window into my vast library.
I now have a new computer and a new installation of DAZ Studio. I've transfered the physical library to the new computer and linked them to the Content Manager. But how do transfer my logical "Categories" list to the new computer. Help!

On the old machnie go to the Content Library option menu (the lined button in the top corner, or right-click the tab)>Content DB Maintenance, check export User data. Copy the /Runtime/Support/Userdata#.dsx files to the new system. Open the Content DB Maintenance dialogue there, check reimport Metadata, check the Userdata options. You coudl also, with DS, DIM, carra etc. closed, just copy the database files over if all of the content has gone across - %AppData%/daz 3d/cms/ContentCluster/ by default.
Thank you.
