Suppressed feaures...

A question; do suppressed features "count" when rendering? For instance, if I have a screw with threads. If I render the screw in its normal state it renders as shown (with threads). If I suppress the threads, once Maxwell gets a hold of it does it internally "unsuppress" the threads? In other words, is it rendering only what the current model is as seen? Is this making sense at all? :roll:

Thanks for putting up with my jibberish...

Yes, the plugin's job is to take the meshes you see in the viewport and put them into the MXS, so if you have suppressed the threads on a screw, it should be written into the MXS as a smooth pin.
