Exports the data in the Shape Table window to a disk file in an external file format. When this command is executed, the Windows File Save As dialog box is opened.
Choose an export file format from the Save as type list.
Choose a disk folder in which to save the file, or create a new one.
Type the desired file name into the File name box.
Click on the Save button.
The table below shows the Data Set Type that is created when a Shape Table is exported to a disk file in UFF format.
If the Shape Table is connected to a Structure file , a dialog box will open asking if you want to export both the Shape Table & Structure files together in the same file.
If you click on Yes, both files are exported.
If you click on No, then only the Shape Table file is exported.
NOTE: UFF only supports Global (X, Y, Z) coordinates, so shape components are converted from Measurement Axes to Global (X, Y, Z) coordinates when exported to a UFF file.
