Hi Tony,

> Will this work for .LWO format too?

Yup, that is the idea as well...

The way that LWO is structured does not quite exactly line up as easily as .obj though.

In LWO polygons can be marked to have a "surface" assignment - a surface is a render material. So I was thinking that probably styles would map to that.

Then there is also something called a "layer" which is a grouping of polygons. It's kind of like a cross between an "object" and a "group" sort of... I think that possibly groups or named objects could be translated as different LWO layers.

It's a little tricky because there isn't quite the concept of a single "object" in the file structure, the closest thing to that is a layer I think. This is a little different than what a "layer" is in a CAD program.
