Exporting Geometry to File

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

where <filename> is a string for a file system path or a file location URI referencing a file version in a Model Manager database.

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

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

where <format> can be set to any of the type values in Table 3-26.

String formatType = model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).export().getType();

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