Hi,

I was trying to export STL file of the lattice generated and optimised model so that it could be opened with 3-matic where the smoothening can be done! However every time the file is exported it shows file size of 0 kB whereas other formats like nastran is exporting just fine.

    Hi Lakshya,

     

    Do you have solid elements in your model?

     

    Stl file does not take solid elements. Extract faces for the solids and export the same.
