Angharad 8 hair on genesis 3 female doesn't autofit

So I tried to autofit the https://www.daz3d.com/angharad-8-hair hair on a genesis 3 female character.

Sadly in this case the auto-fit doesn't work.

At first it seems to work alright.

But as soon as I change the pose from the T-pose to a kneeling pose for example the hair doesn't stay on the head.

It's suddenly in the middle of the figure. 

Does anybody know a work around?

Thanks.

    Which options did you choose in AutoFit? Which Genesis 8 clone do you have for Genesis 3?

    I am not sure I have a clone.

    Basically the one which is included in Daz-Studio?

    I selected genesis 8 female and short hair in the auto fit dialog.

    But I also tried long hair, genesis 8 male and some other options.

    All to no avail.

    You can't auto-fit G8 items to G3 without buying additional clones.

    Fortunately swapping hair between G3 and G8 is very easy without autofit.

    1) Make sure nothing is selected on the screen (click into empty space).

    2) Load the hair. Select the hair, then Edit -> Figure -> Scene Identification

    3) Change Genesis 8 Female to Genesis 3 Female.

    4) Right-click on the hair, select Fit to..., select your G3 character

    Thanks.

    That worked like a charm.

    For hair that's longer than shoulder length, "Scene Identification" actually works better than auto-fit.

    This is reliable for hair switching between G3 and G8.

    With other generations and/or non-hair items it's a bit more hit-and-miss.
