exporting a drawing file DWG

Post by normwheatley »

Hi,

Can I export a DWG file from VE-Pro?

I don't think so (unless I'm not looking hard enough)

thanks

Hi Norm,
You can only export to .DXF , .STL & .GEM format files from IES<VE>.

DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) : It is a CAD data file format.
STL (Stereolithography Format) : STL files describe only the surface geometry of a three dimensional object without any representation of color, texture or other common CAD model attributes.
GEM : Exports only the geometry created by ModelIT.

I hope this has been some help.
Thanks & Regards ,

Hi Raju,

This should be covered in the User Guide for ModelIT so take a look there.

Simply, in ModelIT select ModelIT menu and then choose Import GEM file.
Click Import and browse to the GEM file
Open
Then click OK to bring in the geometry
