Yep scratch that would be the correct work around for now.
Filed another fogbugz about vertex normals in Layout... Hope NT can fix it
Any news about an update for the exporter ?..

Going through modeler is a temporary solution.

Hi Holocube,
Look at this post. !!!

Maybe Sensei can help fix the obj exporter?
"Export is buggy - there is written just one normal vector per vertex.
(But there is needed one normal vector per vertex per polygon)
So after importing there is everything smoothed- you like see in your cube.
I will have to write mine own OBJ exporter (1h of work or so) and put to TrueArt's Modeling Pack http://modelingpack.trueart.eu
because I am often using OBJ export and see and suffer because of this issue."

Looks like if only the exporter triangulate the smooth surfaces everything would be OK(but what do I know, I'm not a programmer)!
(And now, triangulate everything in LW is not a solution
)
-Juanjo, after the release of the fully integrated plugin?
Pleeesss
