I agree - lets worry about making it pretty after it is functional and working for everyone

Agreed, that is the way to roll, but I saw some posts where the UI seemed to be the cause of some issues:
"Unfortunately, I don't get all the options I should showing in linux - resizing the window does no good".

I am new here and after I familiarize myself with the software, I would be willing to help with whatever is needed.

Good going boys and girls!

ur right, and thats a very stupid thing to happen, coz mel is mel, maya 2009 is 2009
and everything should be the same no matter what OS u have, so we come to conclusion that AD didnt do what they should (if u know what i mean )

i test it under linux 2011 and everything was fine , now im installing 2009 and ill check the same thing and make corrections

cheers & 10x for help, soon as i get to UI thing i let u know...

Please check resolution too - I think I have seen issues with like this with other plugins, and I think I run at a lower res than most (1280x1024 - I can't afford better monitors)

i will, im running on 1680x1050 here

what do u think about tabs?

maybe i could split settings into few tabs for people on linux

That could work, but it would probably be better to keep everything universal and the same, no batter the platform. Of course it all depends on what the problem is I am seeing here (my screenshot). The cause/reason might be a simple thing.

OK - I can get it to export an OBJ, but that is about it. I have to then MANUALLY start octane and bring it in. When I manually import the scene, It is at the default resolution - no matter what I specify in the plugin window. It is definitely better though.

u cant start octane from the exporter?

cheers
