Good evening
I'm looking for a macro that allows you to save the unfolded or front view of a .sldprt part (not the drawing) in .dxf
in the same original folder. I should point out that I don't have the "mycad service" tools.
I also tried with the macro recorder but it doesn't work.
Thank you in advance.
Hello
In fact it's very simple, and there's no need for a macro, it's doable in three clicks from 3D without creating a drawing and without unfolding :
File > Save As and select Dxf (*.dxf)
Right-click Unfolded State in the FeatureManager Design Tree and select Export to DXF/DWG.

Edit:
If it's for a macro, there's one available here:

But it will probably have to be adapted!
Hi my Fifi,
If you ask this question, I imagine it's because you have a lot to convert?
Maybe you're looking for a macro, to just have one click to do from your 3D to have your dxf flat?
