Question regarding the Vanguard spaceship rear gate.

I have a question regarding the reargate's sub-gate extension for the Vanguard. How do you get it to extend properly in Daz Studio? When I select the 'rear' body part in the scene window and expand it there is a reargate sub-part. The reargate has an 'open/close' parameter that opens it but not quite to the ground. The reargate in turn has a sub-part called the subgate. The subgate has a parameter called 'subgate extension'. When I use that dial, the ramp moves away from the reargate at a 45 degree upward angle. There is an x-translate dial but the y and z translate dials are not there. How does anyone who has used the Vanguard in Daz Studio extend the subgate properly? In Poser it is operated using an ERC dial.

Thanks for any help.

For me, the subgate extension works properly on its own, extending straight out from the reargate regardless of its position. Although the individual parts have controls, there is a combined "Rear Gate" controller at the "mainbody" level that lowers the gate and extends the subgate at the same time. Does that work any better?

Ahhh! I didn't see it because it was listed in the 'Other" grouping. Thanks for your help NorthOf45.
