Hello,

Anyone have any experience exporting STP files to Rhino? I want to know if there is a way to export to an STP (STEP) file along with the CATIA part names?

I'm importing the STEP file into Rhino and I'd like to have the blocks (in Rhino) maintain the CATIA part name rather than the block number (name) generated by Rhino.

Is this possible? Anyone know the workings of the STEP export process? Does CATIA generate the block names or is this something that is done in Rhino?

Thanks.

Pedro
