3D Canvas Export

Emmett over 7 years ago

Hello,

I am a newbie w/ SPB17.2 and latest hotfix.

When looking at 3D canvas, I see the symbols with the step file shapes that were mapped to them.

When I export (step and 3D pdf so far) all I get is the volume of the place bound, if any.

I don't see any related options in 3D canvas itself.

How can I export what I see in 3D canvas?

Thanks,

Emmett

Emmett,

There are option switches that control the output results. In the 3D viewer- Go to Setup at the top of your screen. Setup/Preferences/Symbol representation. Select Only the Step Model button prior exporting your PDF.

Cheers

Hi Dale,

Thanks for the reply.

That was better, but only about 30% of the symbols w/ step mapping came through.

And of course, those with only place bound heights, did not either.

Are you able to get WYSIWYG from 3D canvas export?

Thanks,

Emmett
