Advantages of v3 for "meshing users"?

Hi Micha, ok I've added that in for the next v3 beta.

It will be a new setting in moi.ini under [OBJ Import], called:

[OBJ Export]
WriteStylesAsGroups=n

You will be able to change this to say WriteStylesAsGroups=y and then you will be able to output the kind of files that I posted earlier.

By default spaces in the style name will get converted to underscores. There is another setting you can change to enable writing spaces AllowSpacesInObjectNames=y but you will need support for that on the Rhino side before that will work properly. Until then you would probably want to have some script in Rhino that will replace all spaces in layer names with underscores so that does not cause a problem with the names changing.


> Is there a chance to get the "use style names" option for v2 too?

Sorry no, v2 is not really under active development now, v3 is where I'm adding new things so that's where this new feature will be in.
