4.8 Import» Writer» STL export format: There are two modes in which STL files can be written:Ascii: Is legible in the editor. Reading and writing is very slow and requires morehard disk space.Binary: Is illegible in the editor (binary). Reading and writing is very fast andconsumes less hard disk space.4.7.7 WRL» Loader» Optimization (Auto, Catia, Pro Engineer): These are special optimizations thatare performed during loadup. Highly complex data structures of Catia and ProEngineer’s VRML files make it very hard to get performant results. These optimizationsenable you to display these data sets up to 50x faster than usual andgive you a quick feedback.» Writer» Inline textures: Usually, textures are only referenced as normalfiles. Inline texturesallow you to embed textures directly into the VRML file.4.8 ImportDefines the CAD data and tessellation value settings.4.8.1 CAD» Tesselation» CAD Kernel Tesselation (ultra precise): If enabled it uses the vCAD kernel fortesselation otherwise it uses the optimizer library for tesselation.49
