custom export options
we have an exporter for solidworks using "addfilesaveasitem2". it's working fine, but i was wondering if it is possible to create a custom page for the "export options" dialog. this would let the user set options for our add-in exporter the same way that he sets options for exporting to parasolid or other file formats.
you could use sldworks.setuserpreference. there are different types of settings. for example, if the dialog box has a check box, it would be sldworks.setuserpreferencetoggle swxtassemsaveformat, true would check the "flatten assembly hierarchy" box on the parasolids export options.

ok, that will set the export options for the solidworks supported formats, but can i create a dialog for our custom (qsm) format? i would like to have a "qsm" tab on the export options dialog when the add-in is enabled.
you will not be able to modify the solidworks supplied "export options" dialog box, but you can create your own, including the options that solidworks has on theirs.
