| Select entities: |
Determines the  entities that are to be translated:
- Wireframe — if selected, all entities corresponding to the CATIA® Wireframe category will be translated. If cleared, the Wireframe entities will be ignored.
- Surfaces — if selected, all entities corresponding to the CATIA® Surface category will be translated to spline surfaces. If cleared, the Surface entities will be ignored.
- Solids — if selected, all entities corresponding to the CATIA® Solid category will be translated to sets of faces. If cleared, the Solid entities will be ignored.
|
| Save options: |
Determines the file saving mode:
- Active layer only — if selected, only the entities belonging to the active layers of the model will be translated to the CATIA® model.
- Partial — if selected, only the entities currently selected in the model will be translated to the CATIA® model.
- All — if selected, all entities in the model will be translated to the CATIA® model.
|
| Bezier approximation: |
Enables you to save entities as Bezier ones (they are approximated by entities defined by an arc):
- Curves — if selected, curves are translated as Bezier curves.
- Surfaces — if selected, surfaces are translated as Bezier surfaces.
|
| Model size: |
Enables you to define the Model size, a parameter that CATIA® uses to determine the tolerances in calculations; if not correctly set, the solids loaded into CATIA® may not be closed:
- Automatic calculation — if selected, the application analyzes the surface related precision of all surface entities, then calculates the model size from the resulting tolerance value.
- Value — enter in the relevant field the model size. Clear Automatic calculation, if selected, and use this option if you need to impose a Model size coherent with other CATIA® files.
|
| Solid options: |
Enables you to save solid entities as solids:
- Create volume — if selected, solid entities are saved as solids and not as single surfaces.
|
| Code page: |
Enables you to set the text code page:
- Select from the drop-down list the graphic character set to be used for coding the output file.
