Export 3D Part Geometry

This feature was introduced in version 6.0.0.

This module allows you to export one or more parts as 3D geometries in one operation.

This can be done from three places:

• From Parts List to export all parts.

• From a group of the Parts List to export all the parts of the group.

• From part's properties dialog to export edited parts.

Each part will be exported in a separate file. All the files will be placed in the directory named after the part's material and thickness (or section).

Configuration

Supported Formats

The 3D geometry can be exported to files with the following formats:

• STL : Stereolitography
• OBJ : Wavefront OBJ

Export Options

• Unit : Defines the unit used in the exported file.

• Anchor Point : This options preserves the location of the coordinate axes of the SketchUp component of this part in the exported file (Project the part's origin). Otherwise, the smallest coordinate of the bounding box is used as location of the origin of the coordinate axes (Default).
