Exporting a Design as Inidividual OBJ Files
Is there any way to export a SweetHome3D design as individual OBJ files? I'm trying to import into Blender while retaining individual parts, and Blender has the capacity to open up a batch of OBJ files at one time. This is an issue that arises from my need to scale SweetHome3D content 10x when importing to FreeCAD to retain the correct scale. It's a 10x factor.
Also - my suggestion is to fix the 10x scaling factor between SweetHome3D and FreeCAD export. That way objects from SweetHome can be used right in FreeCAD, and FreeCAD exports could be used directly in SweetHome. I just found that 3D Videos in SweetHome can be used to make excellent animations for exported FreeCAD content - the ability to make a ready walk-through animation out of FreeCAD work was the easiest walk-through animation workflow I've ever seen - great job Emmanuel.

Re: Exporting a Design as Inidividual OBJ Files
You may select some parts of the plan and export only the selected items to OBJ format if you want. If your main issue is about scaling to mm (i.e. 10x factor), you could also convert the coordinates of the lines starting by v in OBJ files. Multiplying by 10 should be easily achieved with regular expressions.
