Alternate Entities to Use When Exporting Excluded IGES Entities
Unless the alternate entity is also excluded, the alternate entities for excluded IGES entities are as follows:
IGES Entity | Alternate If Excluded |
---|---|
100. Circular Arc | 126. Rational B-spline Curve |
102. Composite Curve | Individual component entities |
104. Conic Arc | 126. Rational B-spline Curve |
106. Copious Data | 110. Line(s) |
108. Plane (Bounded) | 230. Sectioned Area |
116. Point | 110. Line (zero length) |
126. Rational B-spline Curve | 106. Copious Data |
128. Rational B-spline Surface | 126. Rational B-spline Curves (rule lines) |
142. Curve On Surface | B-spline Surface boundaries are ignored |
144. Trimmed Surface | Grouped holes are exported as Sectioned Area entities (type 230) |
212. General Note | 106. Copious Data |
230. Sectioned Area | Bounding elements area pattern |
308. Subfigure Definition | Individual component entities |
314. Color Definition | Standard colors are used |
408. Singular Subfigure Instance | All cells are dropped (placed as individual entities in the IGES file) |
