SolidWorks 2014 Import settings
SolidWorks 2014 Import settings
(OP)
In SOlidWOrks 2014, is there a way to control how SolidWorks imports various 3D CAD formats, specifically STEP files??
Why is it that SolidWorks imports STEP files as surfaces, not solid bodies? Is that a function of how the original file was saved?
What I really want is to import the STEP file as solid bodies so I don't have to go back through and knit together all the individula surfaces to make solid bodies of the imported parts?
Where is the setting that I missed?
