I selected both layers in item mode, then right click and used 'Export Selected Layers' - I selected FBX export and 'Just Layers' in the export options popup. My FBX export settings:
It's the export as command. Just does the same as what you do with file/export as Modo resets the export option to .lxo but your folder location will stay intact.
So "Export Selected Layers" is basically a big script that Gwynne wrote. You'd be better off just going File > Export As... and that should do what you want.
I've recently learned that as well due to Farfarer's prodding ... File > Export As is the path to happiness. The right-click thing is a flakey hack. WHY they want to have 2 separate export paths is beyond me but whatever. :)
If you want it to automatically open the file dialog with the file format set to fbx, you can add "fbx" to the end, like this: scene.save export fbx You can still use the dropdown and switch to other file formats if you'd like. I tend to mostly export fbx files, so I like for the dialog to automatically assume that's what…
I ended up binding it to a key and it works great, thanks repete! That simple hot key saves me several seconds and several annoying clicks every time I need to export stuff. Fantastic! EDIT : That almost sounds snarky, but I'm serious. Thank you. :) Stuff like this seriously adds up and every speed bump that can be removed…
