Using Variants in MCAD Export

Stefan Schrader

I would like to export 3D step files according to variants.

Is there any possibility to do so?

  • Dale Peterson

    Would be nice but not. However, You could manually unplace parts you don't want in your export. Also, for repeatably you could record a script to do the same thing.

    Yes - inside the 3D Canvas use the symbols tab to turn off the parts you don't want to export. Then use File - Export and change the files of type to STEP and export a STEP model of what is displayed. You may need to turn off certain layers because anything that is displayed in 3D will be exported. I will say that the file size can be large.
