STL conversion within NX 7.5
STL conversion within NX 7.5
(OP)
Hello..
I need to convert an UG part file into and STL file. I usually have no issues with this at all, except for this time. When I try to export the STL, I cant select the body at all. Even worse, there is no warning dialog box to steer me into the right direction to fix the problem. Any one have any ideas??
Thanks

I found a way to fix the problem. When the "enter file header information" dialog box came up, I entered a few words, and this allowed me to highlight the part in order to export the STL file. Usually I leave the header info blank. Not sure what this is even for?
thanks!

Which brings me to asking, exactly what version of NX are you using?
I just rested NX 7.5.5.4 and I had no problem whatsoever in creating an .stl file even if I did not enter anything into the header dialog.
