where:

‘formatType’ is the export format ( 0=3D DXF (.dxf), 1=2D DXF (.dxf), 2=3D Studio (.3ds), 3=VRML 1 (.wrl), 4=VRML 2 (.wrl), 5=Wavefront (.obj), 6=Raw (.txt), 7=IGES (.igs), 8=Rhino (.3dm), 9=STL (.stl), 10=Maya (.ma), 11=Google Earth (.kml), 12 = Google Earth (.kmz), 13 = Max Script (.ms), 14 = Total Station (.csv), 15 = Points (.pts), 16 = LAS ASPRS (.las), FilmBox (.fbx) )

‘fileName’ is the name and path for the export output (Note: no spaces are allowed in the file path or name),

‘points’ is 1 to include points (when valid for the format) in the export 0 to exclude them,

‘textures’ is 1 to texture exported surfaces and cylinders (when valid for the format) in the export 0 to not texture them,

‘textureSizeX’ and ‘textureSizeY’ are the width and height of the texture file,

‘mapFormat’ is the image format the texture should be (0 is the first item in the ‘map file format’ drop-down, 1 the second, etc. the available image formats depend on what 3D format is being exported),  

‘resampleType’ is the type of resampling used on the texture file (0=Nearest neighbor, 1=Bilinear, 2=Bicubic),

‘textureType is the 0 if fast textures should be used or 1 if quality textures should be used,

‘surfacesAsNURBS’ is 0 if surfaces should be exported as triangles 1 if they should be NURBS or 2 if they should be

cylindersAsLines’ is 1 if cylinders should be exported as center lines 0 if they should not,

‘cylindersAsNURBS’ is 1 if cylinders should be exported as NURBS surfaces 0 if they should not,

‘curvesAsNURBS’ is 1 if curves should be exported as NURBS, 0 if they should not,

 ‘dxfVisibleFaces’ is 1 if DXF surfaces should be a mesh 0 if they should not,

‘dxfPolyFaces’ is 1 if DXF triangle edges should be visible,

‘dxfDecPlaces’ is the number of decimal places DXF files should be written to,

‘dxfClockwise’ should be 1 if DXF surface vertex ordering should be clockwise 0 if it should be counter-clockwise,

‘dxfTwoDPlane’ should be 0 for X=0, 1 for Y=0 or 2 for Z=0.

cameraPositions is 1 to include (when valid for the format) in the export 0 to exclude them,

BentTubeSurfacePoints is 1 if Bent Tube should be exported as Surface Points, 0 if they should not.

BentTubeSurfaceMesh is 1 if Bent Tube should be exported as a Surface Mesh, 0 if they should not.

Return:

"1" if export is successful or "0" if this command failed. 

Failure returns

- incorrect number of parameters

- no project is open

- an invalid parameter

- the export file could not be created

Example:

“Export 5 c:\temp\TestExport.obj 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 512 512 0 2 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0"

return "1"
