Daz Connect - product size

CherubitCherubit Posts: 994

I was wondering if there's a way to know the size of a product that is only available through Daz Connect? I found out I have this bed http://www.daz3d.com/cozy-bed that I hadn't downloaded before because it hadn't appeared on DIM, but I have a very slow connection and in my house I download only smaller products. I wait to download bigger products at my father's house. I didn't find the information on this bed, even in the product library it says only it's Daz Connect and won't show the size. Is there a way to see size of DazConnect products in general? And what about this bed, what is it size?

    It's cloud folder contains 56.9 MB. 

    Edit: In Windows if I download the DAZ Connect Offline Package from my product library, I can see the file size when it asks where to save the file.  It it's too large, you can cancel the download. In this case, the file size of the offline package is the same as it's cloud folder.

    The Daz Connect products will be no different, initially, than those in DIM.  The main difference is that when there are updates, Connect will only download changed or added files, whereas DIM will redownload the whole thing.  That said, I can see that Connect doesn't tell you the size of the download.  I would recommend submitting a ticket with feedback asking for a feature with Connect that will display the download size.

    I did also check DIM as I recalled seeing the Cozy Bed in it and it is there and shows the download size as 46.3 mb.

    The Cozy Bed installer is Encrypted Daz Connect only, is there a DIM installer available for Cozy Bed?

    It may have been something that got corrected, but it's still in my DIM and showed the size.

    Cozy bed was showing in DIM for the people who bought at once - it isn't showing for others in DIM.
