Hello,
I use Autodesk Inventor to create 3D models then I export them to step, import to freecad, rotate, prepare all cam operations and export job.
In case of needed changes in parts I have to go through all these points, because I can’t reload STP. Is there any way to do it? I found only something for kicad.
I understand that if I change a stp a lot, then it is not so easy to recalculate operation but if I (for example) change only position of hole then it should be easy, right? How to update this base *.stp file ?
STP has to be reread, and converted, esch time you recreate s FreeCAD solid you are subject to TNP.
It is hard to guess what new “topological element” correspond to old “topological element” without some information that probably are not incorporated in the STP file.
Probably it is an unsolvable problem.
Kind Regards.
