Yup, you have to buy the 'Dynamic Clothing Control' to be able to get the most out of it.  It would be a great system if DAZ tried sticking to their word once in a while.  They said years ago that we would be able to clothify our own clothes, and years later, we're still waiting.  They pulled the same crap with Carrara Pro, said that it would get a dynamic clothing system, that was when version 6 was out, so again, we're still waiting multiple releases later.

Actually Optitex reneged on the agreement, not DAZ because the sales weren't there from customers for the budget tools to be created. Dynamic clothing isn't really as popular as some may think, otherwise it would a larger part of each store in the Poserverse. Conforming clothing is much more popular across the board, especially when you consider there's not much need to clothify skimpware. ;)  DAZ probably hasn't pursued another solution because of it. Also uberenviroment is part of DS; DAZ bought out omnifreaker for most of his utilities when version 4 released back in 2011.
