Exporting layered drawings

Postby anonymous for now » Sat Nov 29, 2008 4:14 pm

Hi !

I wanted to create a set of UV Textures, and used several layers (Color, Specular, Bump, Transparency, etc.) and theres the problem with 0.46...

Saving to PNG results in all layers being merged to a single PNG. :( :evil:
I would like to have an option, to save each layer to a separate file, giving a base name and using the names of the layers.

export dialog entry: FILE
saved files: FILE_layer1.png, FILE_layer2.png, etc.

Also nice would be an option to group objects, and an Object list view, like the layer list view.

Sorry for beeing nameless now...

THX!!

It exports whatevers visible, just turn them on one at a time and export and you'll get them as single layer files.
Thought there was an extension to do this but cant see it right now.
