SurfaceMesh from FEMMesh don't work with 2D-Meshes

[UR_]

Hello,

exporting a surface mesh from a volume mesh works fine.

But exporting a mesh from shells delievers an empty mesh

Is this not implemented?

Tried this for this task https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=23711
But can't get mesh exported.

Faking .geo-file works of course:
// save
Mesh.Format = 27;
// Ignore Physical definitions and save all elements;
Mesh.SaveAll = 1;
Save "c:\users\aio\appdata\local\temp\daveSampleOutsideMetal_Mesh_TmpGmsh.stl";

For converting 2D elements, you need the script from the wiki:

Thank you!
That worked.

BTW, wouldn't be better, if this becomes joined with that functionality
