This menu item is disabled because this functionality has not been developed. It may become available in a later version.

DOCUMENTATION BELOW DISABLED SINCE MENU IS DISABLED. Functionality was never fully developed:

You can export features or scans from your part program as a stereolithography (STL) file. After choosing where to export the file and clicking the Export button, PC-DMIS displays the STL Export dialog box asking for you to determine what alignment you want to export and whether or not you want to export marked features and/or scans.
