STEP file problems
STEP file problems
(OP)
Hi!
I'm trying to open a STEP file I received from a customer.
Unfortunately when I open it it looks more like something from a Saw movie.
Looks like the midpoints of all round surfaces have been displaced, creating a pointed spear (some are over 20 meters long)

Example part:

It works fine in a step file viewer (WorkXPlore)
Has anyone seen anything like this before?
Best regards

Must be one of those programs that cause problems with Creo...
Doesn't seem to be much you can do about it. I asked for a model in IGS format instead and that appears to be working :)

Everywhere those spears, took a bit more time but removed all of them. Goes quick enough when you get the hang of it.
