problem form .prt to .igs ??

[puriddu]

Good morning excuse for my english...
I'm studing NX3 in particular i'm working with NX Open Api, my problem is:
i want to save a part with the extension .igs , i have tried to do it with the routine UF_PART_save_as but it save anyhow with the extension .prt.
Then is there a routine or a method that allow me to save a part with the extension .igs ??
I look forward to hearing from you ...
thanks .

Try UF PART EXPORT

I have tried to use UF_PART_export where its first parameter is const char* part_name that is the name of part to export objects to, i have written name.igs in it but, with this routine ,the application save name.igs.prt!!!so don't work!!

I have found in UF_ui.h , non in "function" but in "types", and then in "general types" there is UF_UI_dialog_dir_id_e, clicking on it appear a new window in which i read:
UF_UI_PART_DIR and beside File->Export->Iges->Specify Part

I don't know if it can be the just way also because i dont know how use "general types", there is anyone who know the routine to convert a part.prt in .igs or the way to do it?????

many thanks!

File -> Export -> IGES
You can choose to export from the part you have open (class selection) or from another existing part (choose part). You then assign a name to the file (Specify IGES File) and pick "OK".
