Interface Format Selection

Import and export of the new ProStructures interfaces like DSTV or Product Interface Steel Construction is affected via a common dialog for all interfaces, which will be described in this chapter.

Available interface selection are for:
  • DSTV-Product Interface
  • SDNF
  • KISS (export only)
  • Dlubal RSTAB
  • SCIA Esa PT
  • CIMSteel/2

In addition, the commands of formats like DSTV-NC or DSTV-PPS, which have already existed for quite some time, are available. These are described in a separate chapter and cannot (yet) be loaded via the common dialog.

When the import or export command is loaded, a file selection dialog opens first, where you can select the required interface format under File Type.

If an interface dialog is planned for the interface, this dialog appears in form of individual pages in a dialog that is identical for all formats. In addition, a page for ’General Settings’ and/or ‘Convert’ can be displayed where you can enter data, which are independent of the corresponding interface.
