Hidden entities
Is selected by default.
The export includes hidden entities
intf_out_blanked_entities
Cable surfaces
The export includes cable surface geometry.
Advanced
Enable ACIS extension
Select this option to include datum features, sketches, cross-sections, and parameters in the export.
Specifies whether the ACIS extension is active.
enable_acis_export_extension
Advanced > Model preferences
Export assembly as
Flat*, All Levels
Is available when you select Enable ACIS extension.
Specifies the file structure of the exported assembly models.
Export units
As Is*, in, ft, mm, cm, micron
