Hello,
I just recently downloaded the software. Does anyone know how to export a STL file to a DXF point cloud?
Thanks,
Fred
Export STL file to DXF point cloud
Re: Export STL file to DXF point cloud
An STL file is a mesh file. So I guess the first step is to chose whether you want to only save it's vertices, or to sample points on the surface of the mesh (with 'Edit > Mesh > Sample points').
Then you can select the resulting point cloud (or the 'vertices' cloud directly below the mesh entity) and save it as DXF normally.
