Hi Michael,

Your first idea seems to have solved the problem.

While we are looking at this code one question:

When invoking the command the first thing it does is put up a dialog requiring me to pick STL or 3DM.

I always pick STL.

Is there any way to bypass the asking and simply default to STL?

Thanks.

Frederick

Hi Frederick,

re:

Yup, in ExportParts.js find line 22 that has this:

if ( WaitForDialogDone() ) DoExportParts(objectpicker.objects);	

and change it to this:

/*if ( WaitForDialogDone() )*/ DoExportParts(objectpicker.objects);	

That will bypass the asking stage and go immediately to the exporting.

Then to make it use .stl format find line 29 which has this:

var d = moi.ui.commandUI['extension'].value;

and change it to this:

var d = '.stl'; /*moi.ui.commandUI['extension'].value;*/

That will make it always use STL format instead of getting it from the UI control.

Hi Michael,

I can handle that.

I even understand most of it.
