I have yet to try importing in a different way. I've only done the prior mentioned way of; -In tree[d], save your tree as a .b3d -Then open the .b3d in [**gile[s]**](http://www.frecle.net/index.php?show=§ion=giles%E2%8A%82=download) and export out as an .obj

So, after I imported the .obj into Bryce, I press down Ctrl+Alt and make a Left Mouse Click in the area of the leaves and in the  contextual menu that pops up, I choose the leaves. (leaf_1)
