Groups and components have priority over layers.Split Objects By Layer takes effect only when different parts of objects in a group or component belong to different layers.

In this case, the Split Objects By Layer import setting has no effect on the results.

If a scene contains only layers (no components or groups), all objects in each layer are imported as a single object named after the layer.

You can also rename a component with the Outliner, but the imported name is always the one specified when the component was created. Tip: To rename a group in SketchUp, use the Window menu Outliner feature.

The importer retains the original names of groups, components, and layers, and appends an underscore character (_) and a three-place number (for example, _001) in case multiple objects result from importing the entity.

If an imported group, component, or layer contained multiple objects in SketchUp, the resultingģds Max object will contain multiple elements corresponding to those objects.ģds Max that result from importing an SKP file depend on how the SketchUp scene is organized into groups, components, and layers. All imported geometry from SketchUp takes the form of editable poly objects inģds Max.

Existingģds Max scene contents remain intact.

You can import multiple cameras and scene materials, and can keep objects intact even if they reside on multiple layersģds Max, all objects are imported except (optionally) hidden objects. Please update any scripts and/or pipelines using the legacy importer to the new default importer to prevent failures. Warning: The legacy importer is no longer supported and may be removed.
