#### Export COPOPER

Pointcloud Operator dialog box - Export Operator

This operation exports the data in a COP or COPOPER command in a specified Format to an external file. The dialog of this operation is similar to IMPORT.

Applying the Export operation to a Pointcloud can be done by clicking one of Export buttons (XYZ,IGES, or PSL) from the Pointcloud toolbar or by selecting one of the menu items from the File | Export | Pointcloud submenu.

The Export Operator uses the following options:

- Type - Indicates the type of format to which data is exported. It can be XYZ, IGES or PSL (Polyworks) type.

- Filename - Indicates the filename of the export file.

Clicking Create inserts a COPOPER/EXPORT command into the Edit Window like the following examples:

COPOPER2=COPOPER/EXPORT,FORMAT=IGES,FILENAME=D:/DATAOUT.IGS,SIZE=0

REF,COP1,

Specify the format in FORMAT and the output filename in FILENAME and then reference the COP command holding the data. If a filter has been applied to the COP command, then the COPOPER/FILTER command should be referenced for export rather than the original COP command. For Example, REF, COPOPER1, rather than REF, COP1,. This will ensure that the exported file reflects the filter set.

COPOPER2=COPOPER/EXPORT,FORMAT=IGES,FILENAME=D:/DATAOUT.IGS,SIZE=0

REF,COPOPER1,
