Hi,
will some kind soul explain the use of the import function to me?
I’m trying to import a Terragen generated terrain saved in wavefront .obj format. I use File>Import>Wavefront(.obj), highlite the file, then push the Import Wavefront OBJ button, or hit <enter> but I cannot see the expected new object in the 3D view?

DXF usually takes a long time to parse (about as long as it takes DMV to serve you).
