1. lay down a geometry SOP
2. go inside, delete the default object
3. place any sort of primitive

the primitive will appear as its own object, at the OBJ level, and not inside the Geometry SOP.

worse still, i can't cut and paste the primitive into the geometry object.

This has changed since previous versions, and not for the better - or have i overlooked something?

Have you tried this switch?

Greg

you are right, thanks for the reply.

this way makes sense now
