Quote - Why would it need to be addressed?  You normally don't render something that small by itself, in which case there's no problem, and if you are rendering only a single item that small for some reason, scale it up before rendering.

Considering that some items in an older  product I am updating for P7 are figure embellishments, they are relatively small in scale. Therefore, I TEST them to scale when making them version compatible. I WAS UNAWARE OF THE BUG IN FIREFLY as I am sure others have run itno it as well, unaware.

Well, regardless, it's a bug in the software and should be addressed. Not that I don't see your point, however, had someone else not pointed me in the right direction as to the problem I could have spent countless wasted hours trying to figure out what the problem was (believing the issue may have been somewhere in my material settings or OBJ even though everything checked out).

Considering I am a content developer, wasted time is wasted $$$. No other rendering engines I use have this problem (regardless of the 3D software that I use.. Hexagon, Rhino w/Flamingo, Lightwave, DAZ Studio). IMHO I consider it a bug and should thus be addressed in any future releases or service releases.. this is what I would do as a developer, if I was aware of the issue.
