For the moment, the only available tool is the "Point List Picking" tool (main toolbar) that let you pick several points then export this selection as a polyline.

But sadly you won't be able to export this polyline other than as a point cloud (i.e. a file with only the polyline vertices).

We hope to add one day:
- a mean to automatically extract contours (from slice obtained with the cross-section tool typically)
- a mean to export those contours to DXF (this one should be available soon)
