STEP file Export Problem (by Ricard Rovira)
Hi,

I'm starting to use Solvespace so this question could be a little bit silly.

I haven't been able to read an exported STEP file.

I tried with FreeCad and some on-line viewers but I couldn't read it.

Could you tell me if I am doing something wrong?

Is there any workaround to overcome this issue?

Thanks a lot.

Have you tried opening it in [the trial version of] Rhino? That's what I usually use for testing.

hi

how to do ( example ) :

1 - drawing a rectangle
2 - extruding
3 - exporting surface

you will find explanation on the attached file


You can also use trial version of MOI ( Moment of Inspiration )
to test

I've noticed a difference. (by J B)
STEPs I create in FreeCAD can be opened again in FreeCAD.

STEPs I create in Solvespace open as an empty project in FreeCAD.

Both FreeCAD and Solvespace STEPs open in Solidworks and Solidworks STEPs open in FreeCAD.

Each test file is a quickly drawn box. I've attached all three.

This still seems to be a problem.
