Export all iProperties to STEP files and other CAD formats

Export all iProperties to STEP files and other CAD formats

Hi Guys,

 

Now Inventor only export some iProperties to STEP files detailed here, but its really weak.

Using other file types the result is the same or worse.

There was many developments in the past years in file import (AnyCAD) but not so much in the export.

This basic function should works better!

 

Regards,

Hi, the file export depends on the shape and the format of the file. Now, All solids are considered as closed surfaces in the parametric softwares. I strongly suggest IGES type format to export. It translates your models as solids but after that when you import it, it is taken as solid again when you open.

Wenn sich die Inventor Properties nicht 1:1 als Properties in den Exportformaten speichern lassen, dann bitte zumindest als benutzerdefiniertes Propertie im Exportfile.

Optimal wäre, wenn man eine Konfiguration für jedes Exportformat erstellen kann bei der ausgewählte Properties aus dem Inventor Modell in das Exportformat übertragen werden.

After exporting with the necessary iproperties, it would also be good for those properties to become visible when you check-in the step file in to vault pro
