(*) If really not, i ask you if it would be possible to add a third botton, side "OK" and "Cancel" to import a single object in the list, then other one, etc, instead of have to call again and again the command "Merge". Something like "Append"...

(1) - as I told in the post #35 - only one. But, at least we can see what we have in the file. Also, as I told in the first post, we don't have a component for multiple selection available, so there is no way to implement this resource at this time.
As I have noticed, Dan has been converting the code used by de UI (ESDL), so maybe at the end we would get new controls!?

Add a button to insert an object one by one is not the way that Wings3d manage dialogs - I should not change that.

I thought about the material option too, but I would need to put more "fat" into the code, since an object being imported would be using a material that the user is not importing. That would add some inconsistency to the user project since probably that object will receive a default material. To avoid that, I think I need to verify the materials used by the objects and force it be imported in case the user didn't include it.

What do you think about?
