Parasolid

Hi

Is there a config.pro option to open parasolids in inch instead of
metric?

Thank You

 

If you create a part from an inch start part, it should import correctly and
retain the system of units. Just don't open the .x_t directly; instead, do
'Insert>Shared Data>From File' and copy in the geometry from the parasolid file as
you first feature after the datums. Opening directly defaults to meters, even if
it started out in inches. I've exported inch stuff to parasolid, opened it to
check how the export went and found that the export converts units and it imports
as meters.

 

I have tried that but what I found is that when the parasolid is a
assembly it does not see the different details. And when you try that
with a assembly start part it converts back to metric.
Let me know if you have worked with importing parasolid assemblies
maybe I might be doing something wrong.

Thank You

That config option did not work for parasolid open or import shared
data.

 

I don't know if anyone is interested anymore

Always and thanks.

Works for parts, not for assemblies?
