Saves the current model content
Saves the current model content into a model file using the selected file format. If particular
objects are marked in the workspace, a confirmation request demands after the selection of the
file name whether only the tagged parts or the whole workspace are to be saved.
An optional check whether the model is placed within the build envelope is possible before
saving. In case the model is not positioned properly within the envelope, it can be placed either
automatically or it can be saved without any change of the current position
If the dimensions of the model are too large for a placement within the envelope, it can only be
saved without changing the current position. Optionally, saving can be cancelled so as to alter
part placement in the build envelope if required.
Furthermore, an automatic check assures that all possibly existing model information such as
colours, hatches, negative coordinates or supports can be saved in the chosen file format. In
case of a conflict, a corresponding warning will show up.
In File options, specific settings regarding format version and possible format options can be
defined for certain formats.
