"Export..." does not create "FEM mesh Formats" files

Post by Detzi »

Hey there,
i am using FreeCAD 0.18 on Fedora 30 and when i click File->Export, choose "FEM mesh Formats" type in the filename in the Box no file gets created in the target directory.

I can create other format files like: .amf or .step
I tried diffrent locations like "Desktop" and "Home" or "/home/randomsubfolder/structure/" this has no effect.

Can someone reproduce that?

*EDIT:
It's the same on windows 10...

OS: Windows 10
Word size of OS: 64-bit
Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit
Version: 0.18.16117 (Git)
Build type: Release
Branch: releases/FreeCAD-0-18
Hash: dbb4cc6415bac848a294f03b80f65e888d531742
Python version: 3.6.6
Qt version: 5.6.2
Coin version: 4.0.0a
OCC version: 7.3.0

i just downloaded the version from the webpage. Open up the part design bench create a body and try to Export it as STL. That does not work, it creates no File.

thanks and have a nice Day
