I Cannot Find/See the Bridge Tab!

Visual Styles in Daz Studio can obscure certain important parts of the application

Configuring your local version of Daz Studio to work with Boost for Daz is a simple process. Once you sign-in and choose a GPU to use, Boost for Daz takes a few minutes to spin up a virtual computer, attached the GPU of your choice and load Iray Server - all in a few minutes! Once the server is ready, Boost for Daz will present to you the credentials you will need in order to connect your DS to the server of Boost for Daz so that all your renders will then be done remotely on Boost for Daz. These credentials and other recommended settings are entered across a few tabs and parameters within Daz Studio, especially the Bridge Tab. However, if you have certain DS visual styles turned on (e.g. Highway) - other than the default styles - then these tabs seem to disappear. They only appear if you mouse over them. This might be confusing and disconcerting to many DS artists. If so, we recommend that you set your DS visual style to the default visual style. This will display all tabs and parameters clearly and prevent any confusion when looking for the parameters and tabs to edit.
