Remarks

  • A mesh can be split into multiple files. For example, if you saved a mesh with a name "JamesMesh", the saved mesh will be:
    • JamesMesh.x
    • JamesMesh001.x
    • JamesMesh002.x
    • JamesMesh003.x
    • JamesMesh004.x
    • ...
    To load this mesh select the first file. This is the file without numbers appended to the end of the file name.
  • The saved mesh can be used in any other mesh loading program, because it is using the universal mesh format.
  • You must first convert the object into SSD before being able to save the mesh. To switch to the SSD rendering technique, set the value of the Medical3DContainer.VolumeType property to Medical3DVolumeType.SSD.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 family, Windows Server 2008 family, Windows Vista, Windows 7
