Problems creating geografts in DAZ 4.14 *Solved*

Hello

I'm trying to create geografts in 4.14 and I cannot get it to work. I'm following SicleYeild's tutorial here:  https://www.deviantart.com/sickleyield/journal/Geograft-Update-765423626

Here's what I'm doing:

  • I created at geograft test in Blender by just cropping out a bunch of polygons and imported them back into DAZ. Everything lines up nicely.
  • Genesis 8 male and geograft are at base resolution, Genesis 8 is in defatult pose.
  • Changed base colour on geograft to make it easier to see:

  • Use transfer utility, check that geograft moves with main mesh and is correctly fitted
  • Select outer polygons of geograft, “select Graft Faces for attachement”. Select Genesis 8 in popup

  • Select all faces on G8 that are covered by geograft, “select Auto Hide faces for Attachment”. Select graft in popup

  • Select adjacent faces to geograft on G8, “select Graft Faces for attachment”. Select graft in popup

  • Unparent geograft from Genesis 8
  • Fit geograft to Genesis 8
  • Change to move tool

Nothing happens. The Genesis 8 faces I selected are not removed.

The official DAZ geografts work fine, so it's not some kind of general issue. I've been doing lots of geografting a couple of years back, but now it just doesn't work, even though I'm following SickleYeids tutorial for the newer versions.

Any ideas?

    You may need to save it to the library conformed, delete it, and reload it before the change show up?

    That worked :) Actually just delering it and pressing undo to get it back worked. It really felt like I was missing an "apply" button, and I guess that was it. 

    And thank your for your tutotial, that was really clear.
