Export selected entities

January 24, 2017 export multiple_selection selections

Sometimes we have a drawing file loaded in Digi3D.NET and want to export only some of the entities in that file. The command EXPORT exports all visible entities, but it does not have the possibility for us to specify which entities to export, so in the end we end up exporting the entire file, opening the newly exported file and deleting the entities that we are not interested in. We have just simplified this operation thanks to the new command EXPORT_SELECTED_ENTITIES, which as its name indicates, allows us to select the entities that we want to export. You can run this command if you prefer through the menu option File/Export selected entities. When you run the command, it prompts you to select one or more entities. You can select an entity with the Data button on your input device or you can run any of the multiple selection commands You can see this command in action in the following video:
