Combined content library?

Salve!

Since I started to play around with Connect, I noticed one thing that turns more and more into an issue for me - the separated content libraries.
Is it possible to display a combined content library, so I don't have to search all the time if the product is in the Connect branch or in the regular one?

Thank you

    What are you wanting to combine - Poser and Daz Studio Formats? Smart Content and the Content Library?

    In my Content Library Pane, the "DAZ Studio Formats" lists 2 libraries, "Daz Connect" and my regular library.
    I have some content in one and some in the other. I have to switch a lot in between when I create new scenes, as my content is spread amongst these two libraries.
    The easiest thing would be to ditch one or the other, but I thought maybe it is possible to show me a view where these two libraries are merged?

    Ah, no - you can access them combined via Smart Content and Categories, but the Daz Connect entry under Daz Studio Formats (and the oen under Poser Formats) is an aggregate of all the \Data\Cloud\1_SKU folders installed by Connect, not a single real folder.

    Any DAZ Connect installed content that is accessed from the Smart Content tab can be placed into your Daz Studio Formats content library. You create the short cuts by dragging product icons (one or shift-select for multiple items) from the Smart Content tab into your Daz Studio Formats content library folders.  Not the folder content pane, but the actual folders that you create prior to creating the short cuts. You are free to create the shortcuts in any folder organization of your choosing, for instance, you can place add-on pose packs for environments into the environments folder with the environment product.  Since these are shortcuts, you are free to reorganize the shortcuts, without breaking metadata, using your computer's file system.  See attached pic.

    Ah that is helpful to know about, thank you both. :)
    It's not exactly what I'm looking for, but I guess it's as close as it can get.

    I'll try something else, but again, thank you.
