Description

System Information
Operating system: macOS-12.1-arm64-arm-64bit 64 Bits
Graphics card: Apple M1Max Apple 4.1 Metal - 76.3

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.1.0, branch: master, commit date: 2022-03-08 18:16, hash: rBc77597cd0e15
Worked: 3.0

Short description of error
OBJ file exporter in 3.0 and earlier versions had ability to have setting presets ("Operator Presets" field near the top right of the dialog), and had an option to not apply modifiers to meshes.

The new OBJ exporter in 3.1+ versions no longer has that functionality, which makes it more cumbersome to keep on applying some non-default settings.

See discussion about this in #pipeline-io-assets-module around 2022 Mar 9.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  1. File -> Export -> Wavefront OBJ
  2. Notice there's no "Operator Presets" field near top right of the dialog, and also no way to skip applying modifiers.
