Search feature in Content Database menus

mark.rath

I've already submitted a request feature, but does anybody know a plugin or something that adds this to the process que or re-import metadata menus. I'm surprised something like this just doesn't naturally exist. It becomes a pain everytime having to search through xx number of products. Though I'm sure not everybody needs to do this as often as I do as i frequently re-arrange libraries and have multiple libraries to keep everything nice an ogranized in content library as some products even with Content Wizard and Content Package Assist, don't play nice with the smart content.

Content Database menus ??? do you mean Content Library tab?

I assume that you have read the help file regarding the search functions available in the Content Library tab and in the Smart Content >Files and >Products tabs.
What sort of search are you looking for that those do not already provide?

No, maybe I just didn't explain it well enough. 

What I mean is a search function under DB Maintnance - Re-Import Metadata. I thought the list of installed products with meta data also showed on "Process Metadata Que" but I guess i was mistaken unless you also click re-import metadata.

If you are just looking to import one specific product's metadata then perhaps this freebie script would help?

You can also copy the matching .dsa files from /Runtime/Support/ to

%appdata%/daz 3d/studio4/runonce

and start DS - I think I am right in recalling that that will import the product's metadata.
