VDAFS import options

Items in VDAFS files that were grouped using BEGINSET/ENDSET are grouped in a hierarchy in Alias after import. Entity names are preserved.

Create Section Data

Imports degree 1 curves as section data.

Group

Imports objects as a single group for easier manipulation.

Coalesce Params

Removes multiple knots in curve or surface geometry read from VDAFS files containing parametric spline curves or surfaces.

Map Groups as Layers

Maps VDAFS groups to Alias Layers. All items in the group are assigned to the created layer. The name of the group becomes the name of the layer.

Default Trim Curves

Specifies the curves that the processor will use to trim surfaces. You can select parameter space or world space curves. If the trimming fails, the translator will try to trim with the alternative curves.

Scale Factor

Changes the size of models stored in VDAFS file format when you import the file.
