How do I export only properties and materials?

Raphael Lima

Hello everyone!

How do I export only properties and materials to a .fem model, so that I can import into another model? (in a Hypermesh)

Regards!

It's very simple: just import your current model into new model and remove all (come from current) except MAT & Props.

Hello,

You could have multiple choice to do that :

1. Create an include file via the include browser where you will put your properties and material. Then you could export only this include file by a right click. See the video “Export_by_include.mp4”
2. You could desactivate all the data during the export of the FEM by selecting custom at the export. See the video in attached “Export_custom.mp4”
3. You could also decide to suppress all the data except the properties and material, save the HM database and reimport this database in your new one.

Hope I have answered to your question,

Richard

In fact, the real question of @Raphael Lima is "how to IMPORT properties & materials from a model to another?"

He not need EXPORTing :-)
