ExportDotXSI

Exports an object to a dotXSI file.

This command is accessed through the main menu by selecting File->Export->dotXSI. This command is equivalent to the SIExportDotXSIFile command, except that it inspects the dotXSI export options and requires user confirmation.

Note: Because this command requires user interaction, it is not suitable for use in batch scripts. Use the equivalent OM method instead: XSIFileService.ExportDotXSI.

Parameter	Type	Description
Model	String	Model to be exported Default Value: Selected model
FileName	String	Name of the file to export to
