Export check-boxes

It would be handy if in future versions the ability to select what you want to export via a simple check box window, instead of having to turn visiblity off or on for everything in the scene, it can be very annoying in a complex scene, I realise there are ways to make it easier via groups etc. but still a check box would be much simpler.

What are you envisioning? A scene list with check-boxes? How would that save over the current system, which allows visibility to be set on al selected nodes at once? One of Rob's sample scripts can be used to export only selected nodes - http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/software/dazstudio/4/referenceguide/scripting/api_reference/samples/file_io/export_obj_silent/start

What I envision is, If I have a full scene, and I want to export a bottle, it would be easier to click on export obj, uncheck all, select the bottle, click ok, done. When I save a scene subset, the figure and all parented items clothing, props etc. are included under one checkbox. Visiblity works for every item seperately, unless I'm missing a hide all option or something. Even hide all could be annoying if you have to re-hide objects after making all items visible again.

The above script is way beyond my level of use.

Not testing right now, but I think all you need to do is find the line

oSettings.setBoolValue( "SelectedOnly", false );

and change it to

oSettings.setBoolValue( "SelectedOnly", true );

Aha.
