Hi Michael - "Being able to right-click the Save icon and get the export dialog would bring that nice shortcut..."

I was looking for the behavior that Rhino had (which I forget now, it has been a while since I used it) but I believe I was expecting (depending of the previously chosen export format) that it would bring up the Meshing dialog (if that was needed for the format I was exporting to.)

Typically I'm only going to use OBJ or LWO with MOI so for me, going straight to the Mesh dialog would be the point of convenience - for others of course it would be different.


The way you have it now, you request the file name first (resolving any name clashes) and then open the mesher, I believe what I was used to is the opposite (or whatever Rhino did?) - open the mesher, set the params and then resolve the filename as the final step.


It's not a biggy though - I'd rather get my surface names (and making PAQ happy) first before this if it required any serious code changing... ;-)
