Member David O'Neil Posted July 21, 2016 Member Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Is it possible to copy an object and paste it into another instance of 3D Coat? I'm unable to find that functionality, and it would come in very handy. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Sketchup Posted July 25, 2016 Member Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 No. But you can transfer through import/export. If your object is painted: Go to paint tab. File -> Export objects and textures Now go to your target 3D Coat File in the paint room File -> Import object Select the obj, get it imported with proper settings Now you need to import each texture individually. Make sure you create a name for the new UV set as well Note: you can apparently import 3B files directly using the import object button, but I've found this method to be unreliable, especially for painted objects. If you're sculpting, just import/export OBJs as you normally would. If you're in the retopo room, you can use the File->Export Retopo mesh option, and you can also import a retopo mesh. Sorry if this was confusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member David O'Neil Posted July 25, 2016 Author Member Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 Thank you, but I'm looking for true copy/paste functionality. Play with Blender - it has this, and is very useful. (I haven't tested colored items, but suspect it will work based on the fact that all my other copy/paste attempts completed correctly.)
