Nope, that's perfect. Actually ran across that last night. Thanks for the email!

From File->Export Segmentation, you should be able to select multiple mask layers at one time to export.  You can then choose to either save them all into a single file or save them all as individual files.  Is this what you need, or do you need some other functionality?

Please let me know if you'd like more information about using the Python interface to automate Seg3D tasks, and thanks for the feature suggestions.
