Loss of info in exported OBJ
Emmanuel:

While testing the two new render plug-ins, I notice that exporting a model as an OBJ and then importing it again as furniture changes some of the characteristics of the model.

I first noticed this when I tried to export/import the Basic Lights: they don't give light anymore when imported.
Now I notice that when I export/import a window, it loses (part of) its transparency for light. You still can look through the window, but all the advanced plug-ins treat it as if it were opaque. An other possibility is that the light of the sun isn't strong enough.

The double french window is the original.
The window french double is the one that was exported/imported. If you use four of these, the room stays almost completely dark.

See the attached file.
