Exporting cladding panels to DXF files does not work

Hello everyone!

 

I need your help exporting the cladding panels to DXF.
AS's default export creates empty DXF files.

 

It works correctly with plates and beams, but not with cladding panels... can you help me?

 

Thank you!

Hi,

 

Cladding panels are actually custom sections and Beams. Whilst custom sections can technically be defined in DSTV standard NC files nobody seems to understand those definitions. The NC files are generated as 2D drawings of what is described in the NC file. That ends up fiding nothing that makes sense so it fails.

 

There is no way to get a DXf file of a custom section.
