Mesh import export¶
Commands of the mesh_import_export chapter of the database, 4 entries. The status words are defined once, on the compatibility matrix, which says what each rests on and what the script builder does with it. Read it before this page: broken and removed are refusals, so a row here can be telling you the emitter will not write that command for that version.
CCS_IMPORT¶
Phase geometry, layout keyword_block. Manual: SRC-003 p.307.
Imports a Component Cross-Section (CCS) geometry file. The toggles control hole-filling at component ends, whether the simulation properties stored in the file are applied, and whether existing geometry boundaries are deleted first (SRC-003 p.307).

DELETE_SURFACES¶
Phase geometry, layout inline. Manual: SRC-740 pp.315-316.
Deletes a mesh surface by 1-based index. The parameter table states no all-form; the sample passing -1 for every surface is on the FOLLOWING page (SRC-740 p.316), which is why the sentinel cites that page and not the heading's. New in the 26.121 manual edition, where it replaces the SURFACE_DELETE keyword block and SURFACE_CLEARALL of SRC-003 pp.312-313. Both of those are registered here since 2026-08-07, in mesh_operations.yaml, each carrying version rows for the three editions that document it and none after; no removal is recorded against either, because a removal in this database is a manual STATING one and no edition states it. ARITY NOT DETERMINABLE FROM THE PAGE, and deliberately registered narrow: the parameter table declares one INDEX, while one sample passes three bare integers under a multiple-surface heading. Those two readings delete different surfaces, so the single-index form is registered and the multi-index form awaits a probe (RPT-014).

EXPORT_SURFACE_MESH¶
Phase geometry, layout inline. Manual: SRC-003 pp.307-308.
Exports one geometry surface (first surface is index 1) or all surfaces (-1) to STL, TRI, or OBJ; the destination path follows on the next line (SRC-003 pp.307-308).

IMPORT¶
Phase geometry, layout keyword_block. Manual: SRC-003 p.307.
Imports a surface mesh into the simulation as a KEY VALUE block: length units of the mesh file, one of eleven mesh formats, and the file path. The optional bare CLEAR keyword deletes every existing geometry boundary before the import (SRC-003 p.307).
