The model file created when you run an export template contains only the geometric data needed for Review to display a 3D visualization of the design. The Export utility allows you to create a data file containing the settings of all the attributes of specified design elements and is structured to reflect the original database hierarchy. A visualization program, can then be used, to query any design data details without having direct online access to the databases.
