Re: .obj's and layered textures
From the file you sent me, I understand now what you meant about "layered textures": in AOI, the texture dialog box displayed by Object > Set texture... menu item lets you apply more that one texture and/or one color on a shape, once you selected Layered Texture in the Type combo box.

I don't see how this info could be exported in OBJ+MTL format file, since it supports only one texture per shape and this texture will be repeated along its faces as a wall paper pattern depending on textures coordinates.
So please don't use the Layered Texture in AOI if you want to share your model in OBJ format.
The workaround is quite simple: create a separate shape for the control panel and apply a simple texture on that shape.
