Solid To Mesh for AutoCAD is a plug-in for AutoCAD which gives AutoCAD the ability to convert a 3D solid to a mesh.

AutoCAD does not have a command to convert a 3D solid into a polyface mesh. This kind of functionality is essential when an AutoCAD user needs to transfer his 3D solid models to an external program which can read mesh objects only, such as a rendering application. Solid To Mesh for AutoCAD removed this AutoCAD limitation by giving it the ability to convert a 3D solid into a polyface mesh. This mesh can later be saves to an AutoCAD DWG or DXF file and imported into another application.

Solid To Mesh for AutoCAD is designed to be extremely user friendly and easy to understand. To convert a solid into a mesh. Simply run the "SMConvertSolid" command and select the solid you wish to convert. Truly, software made simple!

Our licenses are single computer licenses and are locked to each computer they are installed on. Basically, the license key is specific to the computer's Host ID (the MAC address of the computer), and will not work on another computer. The installer picks up the physical MAC address of the network card connected to the computer which is basically “Ethernet adapter Network Connect Adapter”. So unless you change your network card, the key will always work even if you reinstall your operating system. If your internal network is periodically assigning a different Host ID to your computer, then please find a solution for this with your IT department.
