GeometryExporter
The geometry exporter. Geometry can be exported to a variety of formats.
Example
application = cf.Application.getInstance() project = application:NewProject() -- Add geometry to export and then export it to an ACIS file cuboid = project.Contents.Geometry:AddCuboid(cf.Point(0, 0, 0), 1, 1, 1) project.Exporter.Geometry.ExportFileFormat = cf.Enums.ExportGeometryFileFormatEnum.ACIS project.Exporter.Geometry:Export([[temp_Export.sat]])
Inheritance
The GeometryExporter object is derived from the Object object.
Usage locations
The GeometryExporter object can be accessed from the following locations:
Property List
- ACISVersion
- Controls which file version to export to when exporting ACIS files. Only valid if ExportFileFormat is ACIS. (Read/Write ExportACISVersionEnum)
- CATIAV5Version
- Controls which file version to export to when exporting CATIAV5 files. Only valid if ExportFileFormat is CATIAV5. (Read/Write ExportCATIAV5VersionEnum)
- ExportFileFormat
- The export file format. (Read/Write ExportGeometryFileFormatEnum)
- Label
- The object label. (Read/Write string)
- ParasolidFileFormat
- The Parasolid topology type. Only valid if ExportFileFormat is Parasolid. (Read/Write ParasolidExportFileFormatEnum)
- ParasolidTopologyType
- The Parasolid topology type. Only valid if ExportFileFormat is Parasolid. (Read/Write ParasolidTopologyTypeEnum)
- ParasolidVersion
- Controls which file version to export to when exporting Parasolid files. Only valid if ExportFileFormat is Parasolid. (Read/Write ExportParasolidVersionEnum)
- Type
- The object type string. (Read only string)
Method List
- Delete ()
- Deletes the entity.
- Duplicate ()
- Duplicates the entity. (Returns a Object object.)
- Export (filename string)
- Export all geometry.
- ExportParts (filename string, geometrylist List of Geometry)
- Export only the specified geometry.
- GetProperties ()
- Returns a table of properties representing the state of the object. The properties table can be used with the SetProperties method to change multiple properties of the object in one step. (Returns a table object.)
- SetProperties (properties Object)
- Modifies the state of the object using the provided table of properties. This method is used to modify multiple properties of the object in a single step.
Static Function List
- GetDefaultProperties ()
- Creates a table containing the default settings to create an object. (Returns a table object.)
