The sugestion of merge options

Hello W3D Users!

During my work with Kerkythea if found very useful option - Merge. Yes, we have the same function in W3D, but each time when you use it (and working with with incremental files) you have to go into the file, separate the object, save it and then merge with new file.
It would be good to have selection where you can separate it. See attached print-screen.

With this function, we could separate it per objects/lights/materials/folders...

BR, Hank

I can't see any attachment. Do you forgot it or maybe it's blocked in some way by the server here at my work?

I'm not sure I understood you what you want to do.
I guess you want to import only one object from many existent in a previous version of your project. Is that? If so, maybe you didn't noticed, but since v2.0 we can select individual items to be imported - just use the multi-selection commands from your OS (for Windows, CTRL+<mouse click item>).

Currently, the Merge option have much more options that you can find in Kerkythea (more control over what will be merged).

Hi Micheus,

I've got 2.1.4 on my laptop, but still following 1.5.4...
I will check this option for sure.
That's what I exactly needed.
Thanks!
