How do you save and load character presets?

I'm hoping I'm asking the right thing. I just recently purchased a set of poses, but there's one huge problem with half of them. They completely reset my changes to M4/V4. For example one M4 has like, 0.30 Bodybuilder, 0.15 Heavy, .50 Chest Size, .50 Legs Length, etc. and when I activate the pose it all resets to default: 0.

Is there I way I can save my changes to characters, and just load them up after using one of the problematic selected poses? So that when I use the pose, it defaults everything to 0, I can just revert the default changes so that my character remains the same?

I hope someone understands what it is I'm asking exactly lol. :[

    Which set of poses is this. If someone else has the set they can test for you, if we know which set it is.

    What you could try doing is loading a 2nd basic character into the scene, apply your pose (that sounds like it has morph injections built in) to that 2nd figure.
    Then select that character and go to Edit -> copy -> copy figure. Next select your original figure and go to Edit -> Paste -> Paste figure pose.

    Hopefully that will copy over just the pose and not the morphs, leaving your original morphs intact.

    Hm. I don't know if it's because I'm using Daz 3.1.2.24 but it works for the most part. I can only Edit > Copy Settings, but it seems to work for body and head separately. I've tried getting into Daz 4.6.3 but it just feels to different and a little more complex than 3. I especially can't load up my library for it so I always gave up on it after four tries lol. Maybe I'll tinker with Daz 4 again though and see what I can do tonight.

    Thanks for the help though! I appreciate it so much!

    It's the farconville poses for M4M4.

    file -> save as -> pose preset, open up the tree and make sure everything is unchecked except your dialed morphs. (been a long time since I use DS3, but it should be in that general area)

    Please do everyone a favor and report that pose set to the store you bought it from, it should not have passed their QA zeroing out morphs like that.
