FBX_Reader can read files in FBX format.
FBX_Writer can write files in FBX (7.2/7.4/7.5 version) in Binary and ASCII format.
In accordance with the FBX format specification, 3D coordinates in FBX files are to be stored in centimeters. Therefore during export CAD Exchanger converts values in polygonal representation (stored in millimeters as explained here) dividing them by 10.
In FBX a single part can have multiple materials, each for a specific set of vertices in the part's geometry. If a part only has one material, it's imported as this part's ModelData_Appearance. Otherwise these materials are converted to vertex colors and stored in ModelData_IndexedTriangleSet.
The FBX export parameters are controlled by FBX_WriterParameters. The following table contains a list of parameters for FBX export:
Parameter | Default value | Description |
---|---|---|
FBXVersion() | V2012 | Specifies the version of FBX file.
|
IsBinary() | false | Specifies whether a file must be written in binary or text format |
