Question

Save As (Exporting to obj)

I have with succes converted many parts to obj files. The result is very nice. I have problems with some parts, nothing is written to the output file. How can that be? ProE just writes: "0 triangles have been written in output file", but why?

    Hi Could it be because non-solid parts are not supported? This is the case with STL export. Thomas

    Yes that could be! Is there a way to make these parts solids?

    It depends on the parts. If all surfaces meet, then solidify will do the trick. Otherwise: Thicken from Edit menu can make solid shells out of surfaces.
