I am afraid that I put in the wrong place. Is there such a thing?

Measure metr5ics does work with Genesis 9 - I think you mean Figure metrics, which is a separate, PA tool bendled with the Daz Measure Metrics plug-in. A Genesis 9 version is being worked on, but you do have the means to set up your own measures in the meantime.
How? The figures have to have exact measurements
See:

http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/software/dazstudio/4/referenceguide/plugins/measure_metrics/using_the_figure_metrics_script/start#step_2adjusting_the_measurements
But that didn't tell how to manage genesis 9, it only shows up to genesis 8.1
Measure Metrics works on G9 but you have to re-parent and tweak the measurement nodes in the viewport to get correct results (Screenshots 1 - 2). If you apply that complex measurement preset, tweak in the simiar way.
Figure Metrics also works - just select the corresponding properties on G9, no big difference in terms of steps. (Screenshots 3 - 4).
Thank you!!!
Sorry, I was aiming for links on how to create new measures and grabbed the wrong things.
LOL Thank you!!!
I notice that it's been about a year and a half since RH stated that Figure Metrics for Genesis 9 was being worked on. I can't help but wonder just how complicated the process is or how unimportant it must be to "the powers that be" for it not to exist yet.
Remember that Figure Metrics is a PA product, not a Daz product, so it is a matter of one person fitting the work in rather than Daz assigning it.
Please could you explain how to get Measure Metrics in Smart Content as shown on Screenshot 1? I can't see it anywhere in my DAZ. I installed plugin with Daz Install Manager, then copied and pasted Serial Number to activate it. When I click Window > Panes (Tabs) there's Measure Metrics on the list. I was even able to measure G8F character with Tape Measure method described here: http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/software/dazstudio/4/referenceguide/plugins/measure_metrics/using_measure_metrics/start but I can't find Measure Metrics as a Product in my Smart Content library. Tried filtering by name, tried to look for those "wearables" in Utilities section and don't know what am I doing wrong. Could you please help me?
Logon your Daz Account, go to your product library, locate Mesure Metrics : https://www.daz3d.com/downloader/customer/files#prod_16684
Install IM00016684-21_FigureMetricsforDAZStudio46Content.zip (as shown in below screenshot)
