The following files are created during the conversion:
-
Sections.bri
The britfair file containing section offset data
-
CC0001.3d, CC0002.3d … CCnnnn.3d
Files containing 3D curve data
-
Macro file
If the Create Lines Macro option is selected then the given macro file is created and contains Lines commands to read the 3D files as Plines and read and fit the offset data as sections.
To use the output data, create a new design in Lines and then either:
-
Read in the 3D curve data using the Curve Points page of the Create Curve dialog (menu option Curve then Create).
-
Read in the Britfair data using the Design page of the Create Curve dialog (menu option Curve then Create).
-
Fit sections to the design data using the Fit page of the Fairing dialog (menu option Curve then Fairing) with Design selected as the Interpolation option.
Or, if a Lines Macro file has been created:
-
Open a macro editor (menu option File then Macro Editor).
-
Open the generated macro file and press Execute.
