User Interface for running and configuring eXport+

The User Interface provides a visual way to configure the export process. The ribbon has several tabs for configuring options: the Files And Folders group for the input files and folders, and the Export Result group for the report, summary and log.

3. Browse for the text file with the list of files and folders to process
4. Remove selected files and folders from the scope
5. Filter for files when processing folder. You can use a * wildcard, e.g. *.sld* will filter all SOLIDWORKS files (.sldprt, .slddrw and .sldasm) and exclude all other files types.
