Merge exporting problem

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

When I merge two or more subtools into one, and export it as an Obj, and then Import it in a 3D application it just opens one of the subtools that were merged, why is that?, what’s the right way of doing this?

Example:
1.- I got a Cube then a Cone on top of it and then a Sphere on top of it.
2.- I merge them all (from: Subtool / Merge / MergeVisible)
3.- It makes just 1 subtool with the Cube, Cone and Sphere, everything its okay
4.- I export it as an Obj
5.- Import it on Maya, and it just shows the Cube.

Why is that? D: What’s the right way of doing it?

Merge Visible creates a new, separate merged tool in the Tool menu. Make certain that you are selecting that new merged tool and exporting it. Otherwise you are simply exporting the active subtool from your current tool.
