# Mesh Generation

[Mesh Generation] command will generate a new document of mesh data, by converting general surface elements that are included in a CAD file to mesh. Optionally, generated mesh data can be exported as a specified type of file.

Since the command will use optional external module, the following special execution conditions are required.

- CAPRISIK License Server be active.

- The target CAD software, e.g. SolidWorks, is installed.

## Step 1

After a menu item is selected, [File Open Dialogue] will be shown. In this dialogue, select a CAD file that includes surface elements to generate mesh data.

After a file is selected, the file dialogue will disappear. After a while, [Mesh Generation] dialogue will appear.

## Step 2

While "Input Parameters" prompt is shown, adjust to the desired parameters. [OK], or [Cancel] button is pressed for the command to terminate.

When [OK] button is pressed, mesh elements will be held in the document. When [Cancel] button is pressed, mesh elements will not be held.
