Import .obj file to Blender Hello, I have created an .obj file in Sweethome3d and now I would like to import it to Blender 2.59, but I would like the furniture to be imported as individuals so that I could recognize them in blender. Has anybody experienced the same problems? I also have tried to import it with different settings, but still I don't have any improvement. Thanks in advance Mitsaki |

Re: Import .obj file to Blender Mitsaki, If you want to import individual pieces of furniture in Blender, you should export individual pieces of furniture from SH3D. It is not possible to separate the furniture pieces in Blender. Delete all furniture except one model, then use Export to OBJ format, then use Undo to get the other pieces of furniture back. Repeat this process until all pieces have been exported. Hans ---------------------------------------- Hans new website - under constuction hansdirkse.info |

Re: Import .obj file to Blender Are you sure that there is no option in blender for doing that? Is there any already-made script that I could use to do that programmatically? Mitsaki |

Re: Import .obj file to Blender Mitsaki, Those are questions you should ask on the Blender forum... SH3D produces OBJ files; these are "simple" text files that describe X,Y,Z coordinates, faces of triangles, etc. The entire model that you export is treated as ONE object, and cannot distinguish between individual parts. The method I described is the only one. Hans ---------------------------------------- Hans new website - under constuction hansdirkse.info |

Re: Import .obj file to Blender Sorry Hans, but you're wrong. In the Outliner view of Blender, you'll have all the various parts that define the exported object if you select the Group option of the Separate objects by OBJ section during importation. ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Re: Import .obj file to Blender Well, you were right that the furniture could be selected individually, but the problem is that now I could select all the meshes, so in order to select one piece of furniture I have to select all the meshes used for the composition of the furniture. Is there any other option that I could change to have the desirable result. |

Re: Import .obj file to Blender I still haven't figured out, how I can have the same furniture as an object, I don't understand why I can't have eg. a sofa, as an object and I have to select all the meshes:( |

Re: Import .obj file to Blender I don't think that OBJ format was designed with this kind of grouping in mind, and OBJWriter class just writes a "g" line for each Java 3D shape whatever it comes from a part of a piece of furniture, a wall or a room. ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Re: Import .obj file to Blender So, what you are suggesting is either change the OBJWriter of Sweethome3d or somehow group the meshes from the same furniture after importing the .obj file to blender? |
