Export not working on MoI v2.

I imported a Rhino file to export from MoI. When I select File>Export nothing happens. To make sure it wasn't the Rhino file I selected File>New then made a rectangle and extruded it. I tried to export the resulting box, but again, nothing happened when I selected File>Export.

Thanks Marco,
That made the difference. I wanted to export the whole project, but I see there is a Save As for that.

Hi Bill yeah "Export" is actually short for "Export selected objects" - it lets you write out just some of the objects instead of everything, based on the selection. If nothing is selected then it will ask you to make a selection, and the prompt for that is in the area where all command prompts go which is in the upper-right area of the main window.

Then like you already saw, if you want to write out everything regardless of selection you can use "Save As" for that.
