I've created 3d parts asseblies to use in a PCB layout package that accepts 3d parts/assemblies imported in STEP format. The model imports properly, except all color is lost. I noticed that if I export and import back into SE19 I get the same results. I've tried many of the step options, including AP214, without success. -What am I doing wrong? Any Ideas?

Thanks

Hi,

this seems to a bug in SE. I've got a .stp that was not
created in SE and all colours show up. Saving
again as .stp only 1 colour did show up on re-import.
The same happens when creating a file (asm in this case)
and saving as .stp. Upon re-import only 1 out of 3 colours
will be shown.

I've forwareded this to my reseller. SE is at V19/SP3
