Reverse y-coordinates

Define if y-coordinates should be reversed (=mirrored over centreline).

The Hull coordinate system is left-hand based, this setting determines if coordinates are converted to the right-hand based coordinate system.

STEP Output Schema Version

Define the version of the STEP schema that is used for the output STEP file.

The available settings are:

  • AP214, CD version (dated November 26th 1996)
  • AP214, DIS version (dated September 15th 1998)
  • AP214, IS version (dated 2002)
  • AP203

STEP Assembly Mode

Define the STEP Assembly mode.

The available settings are:

  • Write STEP files Without assemblies
  • All shapes in form of assemblies – Write All shapes in the form of STEP assemblies.
  • Choose automatically

STEP Parametric Curves

Define if parametric curves should be written.

The available settings are:

  • Add parametric curves
  • No parametric curves. This mode decreases the size of the resulting STEP file.

STEP Translation Model

Define the STEP Translation model.

The available settings are:

  • As is – STEP entities are automatically selected.
  • Manifold Solid Brep – The resulting entity is manifold_solid_brep or brep_with_voids.
  • Faceted Brep – The resulting entity is faceted_brep or faceted_brep_and_brep_with_voids. Note that only planar-face shapes with linear edges can be written.
  • ShellBased Surface Model – The resulting entity is shell_based_surface_model.
  • Geometric Curve Set – The resulting entity is geometric_curve_set.
