Problem with stp files
If i try to open stp files I get the following error message:
Number of correct solids: 0
Number of unsupported objects: 0
Number of failed conversions: 0
No objects to insert into space

The strange thing is some stp files work an some wont.
Has anybody a solution to this problem?

Please can you send the zipped stp files you have problems with to support@varicad.com? Thank you.
Re: Problem with stp files
This is something that I also come across often. It looks like to me that Varicad can only handle the primitives that it can create: hence advanced, complex surfaces that cannot be made with Varicad cannot be opened from stp files.
I also think that apart from this, Vericad stp files creation from native DWB is excellent and import is quite good, too.
stp file import
VariCAD supports import of (closed) solids, not surfaces. So when importing STEP files into VariCAD, please note that the solids need to be closed. Thank you.
stp file import
Obvious question: any plans to add surfaces?
