Runtime not showing

in Technical Help (nuts n bolts)

suddnly Runtime is not showing up in the My Library structure in Daz Studio (4.9.4.117) in the Content Library. I can see it in the structure in Finder but not in Studio. I reset Preferences but still no runtime in My library. I know it was available before, don't know what I did or how to correct this!

iMac running OS 10.12

    The Runtime folder should never have shown, it is (like the Data folder) hidden. All you should see, under Poser Formats, are the Poser library categories under it.

    I was looking under Daz Studio Formats/My Library where all the files in My Library normally show.

    Poser files won't be found in the Daz Studio Format. You need to use the Poser Format but regardless you shouldn't be seeing a runtime folder. If you do you have something set up wrong.

    The Runtime would not show under Daz Studio formats if the content was correctly installed - if you could see it that was an indication that the content was not installed correctly (it was one level too deep in the folder tree).

    Daz Studio Format/Studio/My Library/aniBlock - Animal - Architecture  Down to Wardrobe is the file list includes content, People, Presets etc.

    if this is the wrong structure what can I do other than live with it. I corrected the invisible runtime by adding a base directory starting with Studio/My Library it all seems to work.

    As we said, you should not see the Runtime - if you have nested content directories (a folder and a sub-folder of that folder selected as content directories) then you are storing up trouble for the future. Only the My Library folder in the path listed should eb set as a content directory.

    Why are you wanting to see the Runtime folder itself?

    I had loaded lots of manual 3rd party content back before I started using DIM so some of it is in the My Library/runtime. I have no idea how to clean up the structure at this late date.

    Thanks for the insight

    If it's Poser format then it should appear, when you have the My Library folder set as a Poser Format content directory, in Poser Formats>My Library>some folder

    Set it up shows fine.

    thanks
