Hello, this is about a problem I am facing when exporting a assembly as a STEP through my creo 3.0 and opening g it again in creo it shows a number of coordinate systems. how to import that STEP assembly without a bunch of CYS.

Hello, I know there is a config option that controls that behavior but cannot remember the name.

PTC support would know. Hope this might help you a bit.

Hello Gagan,

I’m not sure about the Csys.

About geomtrie, have a look at the following lines extracted from working code:

GeometryFlags flags = pfcExport.GeometryFlags_Create();

flags.SetAsSolids ( true );

//flags.SetAsSurfaces(true);

//flags.SetAsQuilts(true);

//flags.SetAsWireframe(true);

inSession.IsConfigurationSupported(ExportType.EXPORT_STEP, AssemblyConfiguration.EXPORT_ASM_ASSEMBLY_PARTS)

step_instrs = pfcExport.STEP3DExportInstructions_Create( AssemblyConfiguration.EXPORT_ASM_FLAT_FILE , flags );

model.Export(path, step_instrs);

i also found method:

pfcExport.LayerExportOptions_Create(); ///but I never used it. -- think you should give it a try.

Have a nice day
