Using Genesis Autofit Clothing as Poseable Prop

I find myself sometimes wanting to show an article of clothing folded, hanging on a clothes hanger, or crumpled on the floor in a scene rather than auto-fitted to G3M or G3F. Is there a trick to accomplishing this? I considered adding a G3M to a scene, scaling Z down to near-zero, autofitting the gament to him and making him invisible in the render to try to approximate this in some cases, but there are no individual X, Y and Z scalers for G3 figures (and others I assume?). Any ideas on how to do this?

If nothing else, it would be great if this inspired a DAZ content creator to create some props/figures to facilitate this kind of thing.

    Check out this freebie that should help you with what you want to achieve.

    Basically it morphs G3F into a flat shape. You autofit the clothing onto G3F, and then pose the creepy looking G3F into a position appropriate for hanging clothes etc, and then hide G3F before rendering.

    Thanks, Havos. I did stumble on that shortly after posting. All I need now is a way to do something like that with G3M clothing, which is more of an immediate need. I'll have to try something similar with the male version, I guess.

    If you have Generation X2 you could transfer the morph to G3M

    Alternatively fit the G3M clothing to G3F. Since you are hiding the figure anyway, it hardly matters that it is a female the clothing is attached to

    Fit G3M clothing to G3F... I hadn't realized I could do that! But I tried it and it worked like a charm.

    Much obliged for the help!
