CAM3MFExportOptions Object

Derived from: CAMExportOptions Object
Defined in namespace "adsk::cam" and the header file is <Cam/CAM/CAM3MFExportOptions.h>

Description

3MF export option. Available with all additive machines except Formlabs. Expects a setup as its export object.

Methods

Name Description
classType Static function that all classes support that returns the type of the class as a string. The returned string matches the string returned by the objectType property. For example if you have a reference to an object and you want to check if it's a SketchLine you can use myObject.objectType == fusion.SketchLine.classType().

Properties

Name Description
areSimulationSurrogatesSplit Flag toggling if surrogate supports used in the simulation should be split. This option might not be available for all machine types. The default value is false.
areSimulationThickeningStructuresKept Flag toggling if thickening structures used for simulation should be kept. This option might not be available for all machine types. The default value is false.
areSupportsIncluded **RETIRED** Flag toggling if support information should be included in the exported file. Includes both support structures marked as open or closed support as well as meta data used in Netfabb. This option might not be available for all machine types. The default value is false.
error PreviewGets the last encountered error message. Returns an empty string if no errors have been found.
exportObject The export object we want to export. Depending on the actual export option, this might be geometry, an operation or a setup.
fullFilename The file we want to export to. Needs to contain a valid path, as no intermediate folders are created.
isMachineInformationIncluded Flag toggling if machine information should be included in the exported file. The machine information is only compatible with Netfabb. This option might not be available for all machine types. The default value is false.
isProcessSimulationDataIncluded Flag toggling if simulation information should be included in the exported file. This option might not be available for all machine types. The default value is false.
isSimulationPostProcessingIncluded Flag toggling if post processing of the simulation should be included. This option might not be available for all machine types. The default value is false.
isThumbnailSupported PreviewMethod to check if the exporter implementation supports thumbnail
isValid Indicates if this object is still valid, i.e. hasn't been deleted or some other action done to invalidate the reference.
metadata PreviewClass for setting the meta data options with in the 3mf export
objectType This property is supported by all objects in the API and returns a string that contains the full name (namespace::objecttype) describing the type of the object.

It's often useful to use this in combination with the classType method to see if an object is a certain type. For example: if obj.objectType == adsk.core.Point3D.classType():
supportInclusion PreviewFlag setting if support information should be included in the exported file. Includes both support structures marked as open or closed support as well as meta data used in Netfabb. This option might not be available for all machine types. The default value is NotIncluded.
thumbnailPath PreviewPath to the thumbnail for the buildfile
