e57 to xyz

Post by Mat »

Hello,

Im a a new user and I can´t figure out how to convert a .e57 (or .pts) file to an .xyz file. When I open the file I don´t have the option to save the file or convert it.

I´m reading the documentation but cannot find any solution. There is obviously something that I´m missing on how to use the software...

Thanks in advance!

Load the file. Then highlight the cloud (and not the group with the filename that contains the cloud(s)).

Then 'File > Save' will let you choose the ASCII format and the output filename.

Thanks a lot for your answer and sorry for the dumb question! I realized I had to select my file on the left part and then save it.

I managed to convert a .rcp into ASCII and read it with SolidWorks, wonderful job and thanks to the developpers!

Regards,
