Export Selected To OBJ
This Python script for Modo exports the selected layer or layers of geometry to an OBJ file.
I use this to quickly bring out layers as separate OBJ files so I can get them into ZBrush as SubTools. Maybe GoZ will render this script useless for me when GoZ is finally released for the Windows platform - I don't know, but until then this script is saving me quite some time in my daily work.
Usage
For simplicity you can assign the script to a button for easy access to it. Like in the screenshot to the right.
And that's pretty much it - selected the layer you need to export, click the button and enter a filename for your OBJ export and you're done.
Hope some of you find this script useful.

R-Ick May 3, 2011How can I assign the script to a button in modo?-
Johan Steen May 3, 2011 reply to R-IckHi,
Go to the form editor and locate the form where you want to put the button. Create a new control in the form you want it, and in the command field for this new control/button enter @js_exportSelectedToObj.py and you should have a basic button for the script in place.
