Export, ExportFinal

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).export().selection().set(<objnames>);

where <objnames> is a string array of object names. Then export them by entering

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).export(<filename>);

To export the finalized geometry to a file, enter

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).exportFinal(<filename>);

where <filename> is a string.

In the above commands the file extension in the <filename> string determines the file format, which can be of any of the following:

Table 3-21: Supported File Formats
File Format	File Extension
Parasolid Binary (3D)	.x_b, .xmt_bin
Parasolid Text (3D)	.x_t, .xmt_txt
ACIS Binary (3D)	.sab
ACIS Text (3D)	.sat
IGES File (3D)	.igs, .iges
STEP File (3D)	.step, .stp

When exporting to an ACIS file you can set the ACIS file format version using

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).export().setAcisVersion(<version>);

where <version> is a string 4.0, 7.0, or 2016 1.0. Default is 2016 1.0.

The Parasolid text or binary file generated by the export is of version 31.0.

When exporting to a Parasolid format, a unit conversion can optionally be performed during export. Use the following method to select the export length unit:

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).export().setLengthUnit(<unit>);

where <unit> is either fromgeom (default) to disable unit conversion or a COMSOL Multiphysics length unit, such as m for meters or in for inches. To get the current value of the export length unit type:

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).export().getLengthUnit();

To decide how the non-manifold objects are exported use the following method:

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).export().setSplitInManifold(<value>);

where <value> is either true (default) to split the objects into manifold objects during the export, or false to export the unmodified objects.

When exporting to the IGES format, a unit conversion can optionally be performed during export. Use the following method to select the export length unit:

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).export().setLengthUnitIGES(<unit>);

where <unit> is either fromgeom (default) to disable unit conversion or a supported length unit: uin, um, mil, mm, cm, in, ft, m, km, mi.To get the current value of the export length unit type:

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).export().getLengthUnitIGES();

When exporting to the STEP format, a unit conversion can optionally be performed during export. Use the following method to select the export length unit:

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).export().setLengthUnitSTEP(<unit>);

where <unit> is either fromgeom (default) to disable unit conversion or a supported length unit: nm, uin, um, mil, mm, cm, in, dm, ft, m, km, mi. To get the current value of the export length unit type:

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).export().getLengthUnitSTEP();
