problem form .prt to .igs ??

problem form .prt to .igs ??

problem form .prt to .igs ??

(OP)
Good morning excuse for my english...
I'm studing NX3 in particular i'm working with NX Open Api, my problem is:
i want to save a part with the extension .igs , i have tried to do it with the routine UF_PART_save_as but it save anyhow with the extension .prt.
Then is there a routine or a method that allow me to save a part with the extension .igs ??
I look forward to hearing from you ...
thanks  .

RE: problem form .prt to .igs ??

Try UF PART EXPORT

RE: problem form .prt to .igs ??

(OP)
I have tried to use UF_PART_export where its first parameter is const char* part_name that is the name of part to export objects to, i have written name.igs in it but, with this routine ,the application save name.igs.prt!!!so don't work!!

I have found in UF_ui.h , non in "function" but in "types", and then in "general types" there is UF_UI_dialog_dir_id_e, clicking on it appear a new window in which i read:
UF_UI_PART_DIR and beside File->Export->Iges->Specify Part

I don't know if it can be the just way also because i dont know how use "general types", there is anyone who know the routine to convert a part.prt in .igs or the way to do it?????

many thanks!

File -> Export -> IGES
You can choose to export from the part you have open (class selection) or from another existing part (choose part).  You then assign a name to the file (Specify IGES File) and pick "OK".
