Providing export steps.

Using Knowledge Base Tool.

Reading docs about Export is grayed out in Flux. How to export manufacturing files (Gerbers, drills, BOM, pick-and-place)? Are there requirements such as being in PCB 2D view, having a defined board outline, or project permissions? Steps to switch from 3D to 2D PCB view and access export menu..

Preparing to generate manufacturing files.

This is what the Flux documentation says about this topic:
“Export Not Available
Issue: An export option is grayed out or disabled.
Solutions:
  • Manufacturing/Gerber exports: Ensure you have an active PCB layout
  • Pick & Place: Verify components are placed on the PCB
  • BOM: Check that components have valid data assigned
  • 3D Models (STL/COLLADA): Switch to 3D visualization mode first” Source
Which export are you trying to run right now? If it’s Manufacturing/Gerbers, confirm you’re in a PCB layout and not just viewing a standalone 3D model.

If you confirm you have an active PCB layout open, the Manufacturing Files (Gerbers) export should become available. If it’s still disabled, tell me which of the above conditions might not be met and I’ll help you resolve it.
