I do a cloth and custom morph, but I cannot move morph from parameter to shaping tab. Thanks.😁 morpherror.jpg

The morph should be in the Actor group and should have its type set to Modifier/Shape. You can do that through the Parameter Settings dialogue, which is launched by clicking the gear icon on the slider.

The Path needs to start with Actor, not Morphs, as far as I know.

Thanks cat,😀

And I check that no" actor" in path. Does "shaping" tab is for DAZ people only? So any morph for genesis can be moved from parameter to shaping tab? Thanks.😀

As far as I know the shaping Pane should work with any figure. You did make sure the path shown in the Parameters Settings dialogue started Actor (it is Morphs/Morph Loader in your screen shot)?

Thanks cat. "make sure the path shown in the Parameters Settings dialogue started Actor ", which I cannot understand it. How to operate it ?

In you last image you have put a circle around the Type box. Just above that is the path box, showing

Morphs/Morph Loader

change that to

Actor/Back/Real World

or whatever seems the best place for your morph.

Thanks cat. And I check that no 'Actor/Back/Real World' in path.
But a cloth save as /support/figure/prop, then choose "Actor' but not "wardrobe", which does path show 'Actor'? I save as
"wardrobe",.

And a question is that a cloth which applied "transfer utility" can save as 'Actor',?

Thanks cat. Maybe I know what to do.😀

No, I am saying in the Parameter Settings dialogue change the Path from Morphs/Morph Loader to Actor/Back/Real World - the path, which is how the morphs are grouped in the Parameters pane, should start with Actor if you want the morph to appear in the Shaping pane.
