Export UGrid

The Export UGrid tool exports the grid to a file; the file format is chosen as part of the tool inputs.

Input parameters

  • UGrid – Select the grid in the project that will be exported
  • File type – Select the desired output format.
    • "Ascii XMC" – Aquaveo format for a UGrid which supports both structured and unstructured grids.
    • "Binary XMC" – Aquaveo format for a UGrid.
    • "Ascii STL" – Stereolithography file. This file contains the UGrid points and triangles. The UGrid must only have triangle cells to export this type of file.
    • "Binary STL" – Stereolithography file.
    • "OBJ" – OBJ geometry definition file. This file contains the UGrid points and triangles. The UGrid must only have triangle cells to export this type of file.

Output parameters

  • Output file – This field will list the file directory for the exported grid file.
  • Save As... – This button will open a Save File dialog where the directory and file name can be set for the grid export.
