hi everyone,


I am trying to export from ANSA several stl files at once but I can't .

Any ideas?

Regards,

rowz.

You can find the help for outputstl function below

You can make mode=visible to export only visible elements.
You need to iterate with the faces/pids to export separate stl files.

SYNOPSIS:
ansa.base.OutputStereoLithography(filename, mode, format, output_colors, output_exponent, unit_system, scale)  Named Arguments

DESCRIPTION:
Outputs a stereolithography file.
Arguments

filename         string                The name of the output file. It must include the full path.
mode             string    (optional)  "all" or "model" or "visible".
format           string    (optional)  "ascii" or "binary".
output_colors    string    (optional)  "on" or "off". Specifies whether to output property colors.
output_exponent  string    (optional)  "on" or "off". Specifies whether to output in exponent format.
unit_system      object    (optional)  A UnitSystem object. Dictates the length unit to which the output 
                                       will be scaled from the existing ANSA length unit setting. 
                                       If left blank, no scaling occurs. 
scale            float     (optional)  A float number for scaling the mesh (scale factor).
                                       If both scale and unit_system arguments are defined, 
                                       the later will override the first.
