Visualization Export > 3DCS Visual Workflow

Visualization Export can be found under the Spec Study menu. This function allows user to create photo-realistic renderings. Determine how your specifications will affect the design and establish clear build objectives.

Any or all measurements and/or Spec Studies authored in 3DCS can be exported to Visualization Export.

Visualization Export_Dialog

Procedure:

1.Visualization Export requires either Spec Studies or Measurements to defined in the 3DCS to export and create the FBX files.

2.Apply Material, if needed.

3.Open the Visualization Export dialog.

4.Select the Measures or Spec Studies in the available fields.

5.Select a folder location to create the FBX files.

6.Make sure FBX Export is selected.

7.Select OK.

Style options

Materials that are applied in 3DCS will be transferred to Visualization Export automatically upon export. These materials can be reassigned in Visualization Export using a Look Assignment Table.

Style Editor

Using Visualization Export, in the integrated platforms, will export the geometry with 3DCS Measurement and Spec Study data. Additionally, this function will export any material or visualization applied to the geometry. Please see the material guide for your respective CAD system to add material.

Commands

Write JPEG: This options will create a JPEG of the Spec Study and Measure views.

Merge Faces to one shape: If the CAD had multiple segments of geometry, this setting changes the view of the image to view as one surface.

WRL/FBX Export: Creates a WRL or FBX file. Only one can be selected or created at one time.

Export Affected Geometry Only for Nominal file: This generates a new FBX file of the nominal geometry. Any other geometry that is not changed will use the previous saved image(s).
