Save coordinate system with part (STEP)

[hpham-2]

I can create CS on the part (for example: connector with CS located at pin 1) and save it as pkg.  Save part in STEP does not save the CS, is there work around?

If you use the "Granite" option when saving a STEP file, coordinate systems that are attached to the model are included in the STEP file as a wireframe part with a line in each of the 3 coordinate system directions starting at the coordinate system's origin.

Hi.,

do you know the "The right-hand axes rule"

For explanation start the help of Modeling or Express6 an search for "Orientation and rotation".

in German: "Ausrichtung und Rotation"

Best regards
