Origin points in exports

How are people handling exporting instances from Open Brush to Unity? Is there a way in Open Brush to export the transforms of grouped objects? Say I draw an object made up of a few strokes (like the smiley face here) and I group it and duplicate the group a bunch of times in my scene, how can I export a list of transforms so that in Unity I can swap them for prefabs? I'm noticing that when I export a sketch, the JSON metadata file includes raw transforms for imported models, but not for meshes that I draw within Open Brush. I also notice that groups inside FBX and GLB files all have frozen identity transforms, so the data isn't there. Perhaps the data is saved in another format?...

Capturing / exporting video on a Quest

Hi guys, I want to use OpenBrush on a Meta Quest headset for a university project in my final year. For iterative design feedback I'll need to be able to show people (locally) the progress of my project, be it via the headset, exported video / GIF / images, or ICOSA if I can upload WIPs. I'm reading the docs, reddit threads and these Discord channels for information and have a few questions that could fit into a few of the different channels here. If a Thread is needed I'll use a Thread. Any scope of reply is appreciated, feel free to break the questions down, anything helps. ...
