Could it be possible to include or exclude more than one submodel.

Exclude layers 1, 5, 9 set Submodel property to -1,-5,-9?

That's a tempting idea but not without danger. Here's a discussion about this:

That would be great.

In the same dialog we could add glow, wheel, transparency, colour, specularity,....

Is this humor or are you serieus. Would be great !

Too bad, now that BT uses complex models this possibility was important.

I probably don't need to mention the work around.
But for lurkers that may be unsure.
If a model has a bunch of submodels it's very easy to separate them, or change colors, in Blender.
There are plenty of youtube videos that show you how to do it.

Decentralized, you are right and this is how I do it but the disadvantage is that it multiplies the number of models to store

I do not understand much of Blender, but deleting submodels is easy. Click on the submodel in the scene collection in the top right and press <Delete>.

Here you can see how the Bix.obj model from the installer looks like in Blender.

whatever the software, once the submodel(s) have been deleted, you must save the result as a NEW model to use it in BT, which has the effect of multiplying the number of models

Vincent, yeah that's the downside for sure.

Desentralized, yes it’s often like that in life
