Export Part with Class Selection

Journaling / NXOpen API

Hello,

i have some problems with the function: File --> Export --> Part
The part which i want to export is an "Extracted Face".
After some analysis with different journals in NX, i want to export the original part ("Extracted Face") without the points and lines which i added for the analysis.
I get the original part with: File --> Export --> Part --> Class Selection --> Select the Extracted Face
My problem: I can't find a way for the "Class Selection" in a journal.
Is that possible or is there another way to save the original part?

Thank you.
Johannes

Do you want the journal to automatically export a certain type of body (looks like a sheet body in this case) or do you want the user to interactively select objects and have the journal only allow certain object types to be selectable?

If you want an interactive selection, a good start would be to use a selection function with a "mask triple" filter:

No, it should be an automatised journal. This journal exports the original part (yes, it is a sheet body).
But i found a way to do this with this function:

Dim myOptions As UFPart.ExportOptions
myOptions.params_mode = UFPart.ExportParamsMode.RemoveParams
myOptions.new_part = True
Dim Name As String = "Name"
Dim BodyTag(0) As Tag
BodyTag(0) = Body_akt.Tag
theUFSession.Part.ExportWithOptions(Name, 1, BodyTag, myOptions)

Thanks for the help.
