problem to import meshdata

Hello,

I try to import some data into blender using http://www.janw.gothere.uk.com/Download/Python/objimport.py, but I’m not able to separate the meshes. Several mesh objects in the file are compiled into one object. That woudn’t be a problem, if the meshes aren’t at the same location. So its nearly impossible to select the vertices of one mesh and I don’t know about a feature like “select recursivly all vertices connected to a selected vertex”.

I wrote my own script to write several meshes to the scene, but it doesn’t work like I want.(It just imports one mesh with or without faces, dependent on combinatione of commenting on/off enterEditMode() and leaveEditMode() in the script:

And how I can save a pythonscript back to a directory?(didn’t find a save file dialog, ctrl-c/v or middleMB not working)

Sadly, I tried to install blender2.28, but my suse7.2-system has not the latest glibc. :frowning:

Any idea how to solve this problem?

blendine

have you tried L - select all linked vertices?

It doesn’t always work perfectly though, but worth a try.

BTW this thread should be in the ‘General’ subforum, for future reference.
