Mark: To give a single object multipule surfaces, while in Modler select the faces you want to name, use the keyboard Equiv "q". This will bring up the "Change Surface" requester. Type in the new name or select it from the pop up menu. Click on "Apply". Repeat this for all the individual surfaces you want your object to have. When you load the object in the modler all the surfaces for all the objects will apper in the pop up on the surfaces panel. If you still can not find your surfaces, check the scene panel it will tell you how many surfaces are curently in your scene. One side note: you can save the object to disk then use the Replace object comand on the Object panel, or you can use the Import / Export functions in Modeler, but you must RE-Import the changed object in to Lightwave. Else it don't know changes have been made! Boo-Radley Happy Halloween!
