Import X

Usage Instructions

Supports importing *.x 3D model files as model datasets and saving them to a specified data source. Currently, the compatibility of this tool is as follows:

  • Format version compatibility: Fully supported

Parameter Descriptions

Parameter Name Parameter Description Parameter Type
File Path Input the X data (*.x) to be imported. String
Target Data Source:
(Optional)
Select the data source for storing the resulting model dataset.
If both the target data source and data source connection information are set, only the target data source is valid; please set it as needed.
Datasource
Data Source Connection Information
(Optional)
Select or create a data source at the specified path to store the resulting model dataset.
When an existing data source is selected, a prompt "File already exists, do you want to append?" will appear.
If both the target data source and data source connection information are set, only the target data source is valid; please set it as needed. Using the data source connection method will execute the data import task in a subprocess.
Note: Multiple imports cannot be performed using the same connection information.
String
Dataset Name Set the name of the resulting model dataset. String
Import Mode
(Optional)
Set the data import mode when a dataset with the same name exists, including None, Overwrite, and Append. ImportMode
Texture Compression Format:
(Optional)
Set the texture compression format of the resulting data, including JPG_PNG and DXT.
  • JPG_PNG is supported from version 12.0.0.0 and above. Using this format will greatly improve model import speed;
  • DXT is supported in all current versions.
ModelTextureCompressType
X/Longitude
(Optional)
Input the X coordinate value or longitude value, which, together with Y/Latitude and Z/Height, determines the geographic reference origin of the model.
The geographic reference origin is used to determine the geographic coordinates (projected coordinate system or geographic coordinate system) of the project base point in the data.
Double
Y/Latitude
(Optional)
Input the Y coordinate value or latitude value of the geographic reference origin. Double
Z/Height
(Optional)
Input the Z coordinate value or height value of the geographic reference origin. Double
Decompose into Multiple Model Objects
(Optional)
Set whether to decompose the data into multiple model objects. Boolean
Coordinate System Settings
(Optional)
Set the target coordinate system information of the resulting data. It can be specified by the output of Build Coordinate System. iDesktopX can refer to Setting Projected Coordinate System for configuration. PrjCoordSys
