Im a total noob and want to export an oblect Ive created in Maya to use in another 3d program.

When I attempt to export selected object it only enables me to export in file types .ma or .mb

Is it possible to export it to a .dxf file so it can be shared in any 3d program, and how do I go about acheiving this.

Thanks in advance

there's a way to export your objects in .OBJ at least, which is a widespread format nearly all 3d applications accept.

to perform this action, simply load the OBJexporter in the plug-in manager, select your object of choice and then file->export selection !

from that point onwards you can consider converting to different formats in another program ( f.e. Rhino3d, PolyTrans, etc. )
