Model file operation
Import model
This icon will allow user to select a geometry model file to import. The .unv files
are of the UFF format, and it is fully supported. EDM DSA software saves its
geometry model to .xml format files. And these saved .xml file geometry model
can be opened here. The CAD and FEA models can be imported too. These
supported types are .dxf, .stl, .obj, .3ds, and .nas.
Export model
This will save the current geometry model to a geometry model file in the format
of XML. The saved .xml geometry files can be imported using the previous import
model icon.
Clear model
Click this icon will clear the geometry model. A confirmation message window
will pop up, and user can confirm or cancel the action.
The above discussed controls are all the functions related to geometry creation
and edition. Following are function buttons and icons associated with the
geometry display.
Geometry model positioning/scaling
Rotate
This is a toggle button. Once it is toggled on, the X, Y and Z axis arrows and
related circles will be shown on the window. Drag the circle along each direction
axis will rotate the geometry model. This way the geometry model can be
positioned to the required orientation in a controlled fashion.
