Hi Thorsten,

I'm not sure, but maybe you could load the file with the global tracks and the merge everything else from another file?

Short of that you could consider writing a script that will save out your global tracks to an xml, ini, or txt doc, and another to import it.

Hi there and thanks for the input!

I was coming from a different direction. It's rather a general dev problem. We are storing custom data in global tracks that should come across when parts are merged in a different
scene. Sadly it doesnt make much sense to store it on the objects. Currently we're exporting/importing the data seperately but that's a bit of a drag so i thought maybe there is a way to grab global tracks from the file while merging it in.

Kind Regards,
Thorsten
