Problem summary
Differences in camera position when exporting from Modo to Nuke.
 
Customer reported version
Modo 15.2v3
 
Customer reported platform
 
 
Steps to reproduce
 
1) Launch Modo.

2) Add any mesh item to the scene.

3) Select the mesh item and camera in the Item List.

4) Right-click on the selected items and choose Export Selected Layers.

5) In the Export Select pop-up click the drop-down and choose Alembic then click OK.

6) Save the file to a easy to find location.
 
7) Launch Nuke.
 
8) Drag and drop the the alembic into Nuke.
 
9) Note that two cameras appear.
 
10) Also note that one camera will show the appropriate camera viewpoint in Nuke as was chosen in Modo while the second is at a incorrect position.
 
Additionally, if only the mesh item is chosen in Modo's item list and exported without the camera, when it is imported into Nuke the single camera that appears will have the incorrect position.
 
Expected behaviour
When the file is exported it should only have a single camera and be imported into Nuke with the correct position.
 
Actual behaviour
One or more cameras are exported with the incorrect position.
 
Workaround
If using the File menu in Modo to export the alembic instead of the right-click menu the issue does not appear.
