[fixed] save selected / images - Hank - 03-22-2019
hi there,
W3D 2.2.3
OS: Linux
I'm not sure if this is a bug or just needs an improvement
I got a file with multiple images where total size of them is 18 MB
I select one object + 2 random images and 'save selected...'
New file has all images from original source
Strange, isn't it?
If they are not assigned to any material anymore, thus why I still need them in new file?
BR, Hank

Yeah, it looks like all images are saved even if not used by the object's material.
But, it works that way since I knew Wings3D. Maybe it was decided to the user decide to remove the unwanted images in the new project. If it was removed and the user was intending to use it in the new file, then he would needed to add each image again (although, now a days we can select multiple images to import
)I'm not sure we can consider that a bug.

I requested this case because all my W3D files are kept in One Drive storage, thus when someone has limited internet bandwidth, I try to save each MB for transfer...
It's not something I can't live without it, but maybe for future releases we could think about some improvement.

I fixed that.
It was assumed if we want to save only the selection, then only the material and images used by that selected items will be stored in the new project file.
