David Manura Posted April 27, 2004 Report Share Posted April 27, 2004 We have a new "patools.exe" utility under beta testing that provides the following functions: - import 3D CAD files into SIMION (STL --> PA conversion) - import 2D bitmap (BMP/PNG/GIF/PNM) files into SIMION as 2D potential arrays. - export potential and field maps from refined PA files as text. - export PA files into CAD (PA --> STL conversion). - quickly view PA and STL files from Windows Explorer (OpenGL) Check out the tutorial first: "Potential Array Tools Tutorial: Importing/Exporting PA Files" [ http://www.simion.com/sl/pa_tut.html ] Existing SL customers may download this utility free, as part of the upgrade plan. The final version of patools.exe will be part of the upcoming SL toolkit v.1.1. Feedback is greatly appreciated, especially during this beta testing stage. Any very technical feedback should probably be directed to the SL users group (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/simion-sl/) or to myself.
