Hiya,
I am new to the software and I wanting to export an obj for use in Rhino...I can't figure out how!
Any help would be great, thank you.

Hi Claire,
Welcome in the forum 
You have to export your model as an OBJ file and load it with Rhino. To do this, click the button "Edit OBJ" as indicated in the image and give the file a ".obj" extension (for example "test.obj"). Let me know if this doesn't work.

Hi
Thanks for the quick reply. I can't get it to work. Do you mean...click the Edit OBJ button, then choose the 'save' button in that window and type test.obj? This seems to create a very tiny file that is not an obj that Rhino will recognise.
What am I doing wrong?

Yes, that's it .

When you open K3DSurf the first time, you have to click the button "Compute" at least once before trying to export an OBJ file. The first model showed by K3DSurf is an "empty" file (That's a bug that will be fixed). Hope this can help
