Considerations when Exporting an Active Part or Assembly
Consider the following if you are exporting an active part or assembly is an in-session export to VRML:
Regular assembly features are supported only in an in-session export.
Simplified representations that are currently displayed are supported only in the in-session export. See the vrml_simprep_export configuration option for more information.
The export of cabling data is supported only in the in-session export. The software supports Harness and Cabling components only if you set the environment variable to Thick Cable.
Use the in-session export to export components that have a sublayer in the DISPLAY status.
Export assembly features and exploded states. Only the active exploded state can be exported.
Export simplified representations with replaced components as a package file.
* 
Only simplified representations with DEFAULT RULE INCLUDE (master rep) and EXCLUDE RULE for selected components are exported to package files.
Export a currently displayed simp. rep.
