Is an "AmiraMesh" file actually a mesh? If so, you want to export to OBJ (.obj) format. I hear Amira can export in that format.

If it's actually a volume data set, my guess is you just want a file that is everything after that "@1". Then you can manually instruct ImageVis3D what the volume sizes, etc. are and load the file that way.

Unfortunately I do not think we support loading only a mesh into ImageVis3D at present -- it has to be associated with some volume data. This should arguably be changed. In the meantime, just create a 1x1x1 "volume" and load it into ImageVis3D, then use 'File | Add Geometry to this Data Set' to import your OBJ-format mesh.

Cheers,

Hello,

I am trying to use iv3D to do the volume rendering of electron density data of
a formaldehyde molecule.  The electron density data is stored in a AmiraMesh
file. I would like to ask which format should I change to? I tried to load it
as raw data, but I couldn't see any shape of of the molecule at all.

Any help will be appreciated.

Here is the part of my  AmiraMesh file.
