Export xyz points of 3d line sketch
Export xyz points of 3d line sketch
(OP)
Hi all,
I have a 3D sketch of straight lines which I need to import into a beam element analysis software (GSA by Oasys). The problem: I cannot find a way to export xyz coordinates of my 3D sketch. A 3D dxf export from SW would do as well I suppose.
I've seen from other threads that there are APIs for xyz exporting but I've tried to run a few and keep getting a compile error: "user-defined type not defined". I don't really know how to use APIs.
Any help will be GREATLY appreciated!!!!! Thank you.
Greg

1. What macro(s) have you used?
2. When you get that error, can you choose "Debug"? If so, what line comes up as yellow in the VBA editor?
-handleman, CSWP (The new, easy test)

It also shows what is highlighted and the error code. What do I do?! Is a macro simply run from the Tools/Macro/Run?
Thank you for your time!!!

It seems so blindingly obvious when you know! Such frustration, now relieved!
