I reopened a V3 figure in P5 and discovered that all the previously hidden dials were now unhidden. Among other things, the optional (?) HeadMorphPak and InternationalBeauty morph channels already have their names hardwired into the figure.

So, I regrouped the head morphs into more hierarchical (easier to find) groups and saved the character to my library. Those of you sharp enough to notice Brows in there twice should note that the morphs below the Expressions section are essentially sculpting morphs, not expression morphs. Custom thumbnail done in Fireworks.

Obviously, since I can't redistribute DAZ's characters, I'd like to distribute something that redoes this for a V3 character after you load it. Besides, it'd be more useful to be able to apply this organization to an existing V3 character.

Would it be best to do it as a Python script, or can a Pose file create categories and rearrange channels in them as well?

Also, if someone else has done something like this already, please let me know. I've been away for a while now, and no longer fervidly archive every single Freestuff item daily like I used to.
