Hello

I am trying to export objects from within studio but it keeps telling me the following ; ERROR, The current geometry is protected and cannot be exported.

Does anyone know of a way to not make the geometry protected?

Thank you!

Depends on which plugin you're exporting the MXS with...

Hello Tom

I am exporting via sketchup but do not see any options where i can lock, or protect the geometry. Seems like a strange option?

Thanks!

Poor sketchup up.. The beaten step child of all the Maxwell software plugins

Here's page 5-6 from the plugin manual located at ..Google\Google SketchUp 7\Plugins\MaxwellExport.pdf

I dont have the maxwellexport.pdf on this computer but your description was perfect. Thank you for the help!

Well how do you do this from the studio ?

As you have no export options how is it possible to unlock those objetcs...
I would really like to know as it sometimes very convinient for me to export
some objects from dosch in native mxs format in other modelers like Fz.
As I remenber it was possible before in earlier versions of maxwell...

Thanks in advance

What OS you are using? Which plugin installer did you use?

Hallo Tom,

first I would like to thank you for your quick answer.
I am using OSX 10.5.8 and without pluging. I model in FZ
and export in studio which I find very convinient for the camera the texture and lightning
settings... I know it is not everybody's workflow but whatsoever I find it to be the
best way to achieve accurate renders..

Best regards
