UV Layout to Modo 501 issue

Norron

Trying to pick up Modo 501 at the moment so I'm working with the trial download. I ran into an issue trying to import an unwrapped model from UV layout back to Modo though.

Anytime I import the OBJ nack into Modo it erases all of my painfully laid out UVs. Importing into and then back out of maya 2012 before Modo doesn't work either. No UVs with OBJ or FBX.

I've heard Modo has some interesting import and export problems. Not sure what's going on here though so does anyone who's better with modo have any clue?

I can't think of anything off hand.

If you want to upload an example file somewhere I'll take a look at it.

If you haven't already done so, maybe check the Lists palette > UV Maps to see if there are any. I think that sometimes the map needs to be selected to make the UVs show up.

That did the trick! Kind of an interesting bug, I never would have known that was something I could do.

Thanks for the help, it's much appreciated.
