Smooth Out Bump

Fine ~ just try with more experiments loh ~~

As for the disappear issue, becase that Apartment is a Scene rather than a SubSet, you can right click on the thumnail of "Jill's Apartment V4", right-lick on it, choose "Merge Into Scene", or hold Alt key first, then drag it into the scene.

That frame won't be changed if you merge or drag the apartment into the scene. Also you can change it back by tweaking Pixel Size and Aspect Ration in Render Settings pane.

As for TeamViewer, I can only do that on Sat and Sun. If it's need, then we talk via PM separately.

Is your appartment a scene or a scene subset?

If a scene you need to merge it to the existing, instead of loading it.

@felis I Dm'd you.

@crosswind

Right Click > Select Apartment > Merge into scene worked. Thanks crosswind.

1: How is the mirror moved and attached to a wall or just "freestand" it?

2: Can objects in the apartment be moved around?

3: How is Jill moved to positon her in front of mirror?

4: In the Apartment scene. How do I setup all the lighting and cameras (f-stop, exposure, focul length, etc.)?

Any YT vids for these questions? I'm in my late 40s and my memory is not what it's used to be. I'm going to print all this stuff out too eventually.

I'll keep saying, I'm very grateful for your time in answering my multitude of questions.

No voice audio? I speak English.

1. Alt Shift + T, use Translate Tool to move it to the wall.
2. As you wish ~~
3. as same as 1.
4. learn the basic 3 point lights in this tut. - https://youtu.be/vcg4HKeqFig?si=NEDIcqVTLmoIhGTg

Frankly speaking, these are fundamental knowledge and skills. I suggest you go thru the basic tutorials on Daz3D official channel on YT, in here https://www.youtube.com/@Daz_3D/videos which may lead you from an entry level to a master.

Nope... for the time being.

Isn't there a chat/message function for TeamViewer?

I have not used Daz for several days due to health issues. I'm still thinking about it and will get back to Jill.

Last time a had a little play around Jill's apartment and tried to select objects to move them. It either selected nothing or selected the hole infrastructure. What am I doing wrong and what is the correct way?

The node "Jill Apartment V1" is a holistic Prop of the aparment... If Ctrl + P, zoom out View, hide "Jill Apartment V1" node, you'll find there're only a couple of individual Prop you may manipulate...

Then after your recovery, PM me... we may try TeamViewer, which has communication function of Voice and Text chat, IIRC...

Hello @crosswind!

Continental time zones might be an issue. I'll PM you my location.
