Wow Brian - that works way differently to mine here, surely it can't be a Mac OS X thing. I can tell you from my side of things that I can import 3DM directly from MoI, or Rhino. If I try to import Rhino models into KS with no render meshes, KS moans about no 3D geometry present, but selecting the Import NURBs option on the import dialog fixes that nag screen.

I am totally confused here and don't know what to say :/

Do you use Skype - I know there is a way to share my desktop view with you somewhere with Skype so I could show you. If so PM me with your Skype name and i'll add you in :)

Hi Martin,
Thank you for your help.

I think I've made some progress.
My internet connection at home has been very poor the last few months.
I quickly deactivated the home KeyShot5.1Pro.
At the office, I re-downloaded KeyShot5.1Pro, and installed and activated it.
NOW the Moi .3dm files WILL import with the Import Nurbs checkbox. (No import without this checked.)

Initially upon startup, the menu Settings\ Render Nurbs selection is greyed out.
After a Moi .3dm import, the menu Settings\ Render Nurbs selection is no longer greyed out, and has a check. The .3dm is displayed in KS5Pro.
If this menu Settings\ Render Nurbs selection is unchecked, the .3dm vanishes from the KS5.1Pro screen. If rechecked, the .3dm re-appears.

So the home pc install appears to be defective.

I'm going back to previous posts and indicate which statements are Incorrect.

- Brian

ps. I've read that, (for a one "seat" purchase,) KeyShot5Pro may be installed on 3 computers. (Only one is Activated at a time, the others must be de-activated.)

I have only basic turntable animation. (Did not purchase Animation upgrade.)

Hi Brian, that's great to know it's working as it should now.

** I have only basic turntable animation. (Did not purchase Animation upgrade **

I am not sure but i think that should be enough to trigger motion blur. If you start a simple turntable animation, then if Motion Blur is allowed it will become selectable on the settings tab

Have fun playing Brian :)

You will learn to love the "update geometry" when working with MoI - no plugin required - Yay!
