Hi Paul,
I encountered something maybe to improve if not possible already?
The PLN file saved is bigger then usual when working without the plugin.
To exchange with third parties I would like to detach the plugin information to make the file as small as possible.
i.e. a project I am working on with the plugin is about 21Mb large,
but when copying the 3dmodel into a new empty Archicad file and saved, the file is < 4MB.
And I think the fileseize difference is mostly due to the plugin info... not sure ofcourse.
greetings, Jeroen

One way to achieve this might be for an extra option in the plugin "Save As Without Octane Information". Clicking that button does an ArchiCAD "saveas" but will not add the Octane nodes. It would need ot be done in such as way that users would not get confused and over-write their Octane saved version with a non-Octane saved version.

I have a couple of small fixed done and will look at adding the above and posting in the next 3-4 days. I should have the Viewport navigation done in the next week too!
