Syntax

fname = 'fileName.txt'
export(ori,fname)
export(ori,fname,'radians','Bunge')

fit ellipses to grains and store halfaxes and orientation in a struct
[S.angle,S.a,S.b] = fitEllipse(grains);

% store area
S.area = grains.area;

% export orientation and custom data
export(grains.meanOrientation,fname,S)

Input

`q`	`quaternion`
`fname`	`filename`
`S`	`struct containing additional properties to be exported`

Options

`quaternion`	`export quaternion values`
`Bunge`	`export Bunge Euler angles (default)`
`Matthies`	`export Matthies Euler angles (alpha beta gamma)`
`degree`	`output in degree (default, unless 'quaternion' is passed)`
`radians`	`output in radians`
