Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.6.0 NVIDIA 546.33

Blender Version
Broken: version: 4.0.2, branch: blender-v4.0-release, commit date: 2023-12-05 07:41, hash: 9be62e85b727
Worked: 3.6.2

Addon Information
Name: Rigify (0, 6, 9)
Author: Nathan Vegdahl, Lucio Rossi, Ivan Cappiello, Alexander Gavrilov

Short description of error
[Please fill out a short description of the error here]

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
As stated in this stackexchange question, the replacement of armature.layers (removed) with armature.collections (new) appears to lose information and not be able to draw the Rigify Layers panel in the UI as in previous versions:

Bone Collections have a very undescriptive list

Bone collections.png compare to generating a new rig in 4.0

Is there some migration workflow or tool to not lose this feature on older rigs?

Hi, thanks for the report. Guess you would require to update metarig to "bone collections" first, then need to regenerate rig: image

Hi, thanks for the report. Guess you would require to update metarig to "bone collections" first, then need to regenerate rig: image

Perhaps my "example" file had another (meta) rig. Most of my files are like the attached: only the main rig that contains both FK and IK bones, in layers. Rigged.blend I still don't see the upgrade nor any Rigify panel.

Not sure how to proceed in such case (without the meta-rig or the actual bones) cc @angavrilov
In case of rigify migration.blend, select metarig_3.6.2 then you will get an option "update metarig" in object data properties panel.

Upgrade is only implemented for metarigs, because 1) the intended workflow is to keep them around for updates, and 2) updating a generated rig would require parsing and patching the text of the python script datablock. So, in any case, this is a feature request and not a bug.

It is unfortunate that at least DAZ import add-on does not create such a rig.
