Export

The export action collects all geometry produced by the model and writes it to a file. The output format is determined by the file extension (not case sensitive):

Extension Format
.step STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product model data)
.stl STL (stereolithography)

Usage

bdbox model.py export output.step   # Export to STEP
bdbox model.py export output.stl    # Export to STL
python model.py export output.step  # Export to STEP
python model.py export output.stl   # Export to STL

Combining with parameter flags

Parameter flags may appear before or after the subcommand:

bdbox model.py --width 50 export output.step
bdbox model.py export output.step --width 50
python model.py --width 50 export output.step
python model.py export output.step --width 50
