DAZ Studio Advanced Review

Adding meta-data to loose files in DAZ Studio is quite easy, if you have a lot of them, and with proper categories included, it can become hard to find between two dozen tops and another two dozen pants just to find the result to form a matching outfit. This is the Products view of the My Stuff panel. 

To generate meta-data for your product - or to create a continue-product from a set of artworks you want to group together - find a directory including some of the product's libraries in the Content Library tab, open the context menu herein, and select "Create a Product...". A small tab will pop-up, notify you for a name, and then "OK" to confirm. A new product directory then created in the related sub-folder in the "Products" directory. 

P.S.: You need to select the content of the regular directory before product creation - I determinate it was not a must, but when I take a screen capture, the product directory was empty at the end.

DAZ Studio 4 Tutorial: Adding meta-data to existing files

DAZ Studio 4 Pro
I'm told that in newer versions of DAZ Studio 4 Advanced/Pro the "My Stuff" tab was renamed to "Smart Content", but since the vast majority of us do not have access to those versions of DS4, I'm not changing the name in the tutorial, until the Standard Edition is updated too, and we all see the same tabs again.

The new Content Management System for DAZ Studio 4 is immensely useful. Having the content of the "My Stuff" panel automatically filtered by whatever you have selected in the viewport greatly speeds up searching for the correct clothes, materials or poses to apply.

Unfortunately the CMS currently only knows about the sample content that comes with the DAZ Studio 4 beta. Fortunately you can add your own meta-data to the files that you already own; the tools are built right into DAZ Studio 4 (DS4).

To add meta-data to a file or set of files select the folder containing them in the Content Library tab, click on the tab menu icon in the corner of the tab group, and select "Content DB Editor...". A dialogue window will pop open.
