Here’s what the Flux documentation says about exporting from Flux:
"Data portability ensures that your PCB designs created in Flux can be exported and used across different tools and manufacturing processes. Whether you're sending files to a PCB manufacturer, integrating with external CAD tools, or creating visualizations of your board, Flux supports all the essential export formats you need.
All export options are accessible through the Flux menu in the top-left corner of your workspace under the Export submenu."
For manufacturing files (Gerbers): "Open the Flux menu in the top-left corner of the screen. From there, choose the 'Export' option and select 'Manufacturing Files' to export an archive containing Gerber files."
If you need anything beyond Gerbers (e.g., native Altium design files), let me know what specifically you want to transfer and I’ll advise based on what Flux supports.
Got it. Let’s troubleshoot why Export is greyed out.
A few common causes and quick checks:
Project permissions: If you don’t have edit access (view-only or shared without export rights), export options can be disabled. Try opening a project you own or request edit access.
Unsupported context: Export is only available from a project (not from a part or module editor). Make sure you have a project open, not a standalone part.
Missing PCB: Some export options require a PCB layout to exist. Create/sync a PCB from the schematic first.
Modal/state block: If a dialog is open or you’re mid-edit/rename, menus can disable. Press Esc to clear, then try again.
Connectivity issues: Brief network hiccups can disable cloud actions. Refresh the page and sign in again.
If you want, tell me:
Are you in a project you own?
Do you have a PCB tab present?
Are other menu items also greyed out?
With that, I can give exact next steps.
