Exporting ACIS® Data Interactively

You can export 3DEXPERIENCE content to xcgm files.

Before you begin:

Converter for ACIS

  • Is available only on Windows OS.
  • Supports XCGM versions from 2012 to 2022.
  • Does not support:
    • Pure wireframe data
    • Mesh (graphical) data
    • Specific format (e.g. piping data) (Converter for ACIS is dedicated to Product structure and geometry)
    • Texts and annotations
    • Layer (for *.xcgm)
    • Transparency (for *.xcgm).
  • Options are available. See External Native 3D Formats for more information.

  1. Select Share > Export.

    See Export for more information.

  2. In the dialog box that opens,
    1. Select CGM (*.xcgm) as the format.
    2. Enter the storage location path.
    3. Click OK.
    • A progress bar is displayed while the data are exported.
    • If you intend to export tessellated content, the xcgm file contains no part representation, only the product structure if any.
    • If the operation fails, a failure message is displayed and the export is aborted.
