Re: Unable to save as .step .igs or .x_t
is it a part or an assembly....are you saving just outside surfaces or the whole thing?
check the options tab on the save as window..

Re: Unable to save as .step .igs or .x_t
correction, it will export as xt but not stp or igs. This applies to parts and assemblies

SW 2015 doesn't have export in the options menu, where else would it be?

Re: Unable to save as .step .igs or .x_t
my guess is the DLL for the translator is hosed....suggest you shut everything down... reboot...(parallels could also be hosed?)

Re: Unable to save as .step .igs or .x_t
I've restarted the computer to no avail, are you suggesting to reinstall Parallels and SW?

Re: Unable to save as .step .igs or .x_t
Sally,.. I'm suggesting something has gone wrong with the STEP translator DLL.. it could not be registered, the registry is messed up.. so, if you reboot, it may register/run?
If the registry is hose.. you may need to reset it,.. very easy to do.. search for resetting registry or this link..
Resetting the SOLIDWORKS registry
As for Parallels,.. it's a virtual system so.. if you have not already,.. it may need to reboot as well?

Re: Unable to save as .step .igs or .x_t
Hey Sally... so... what worked or what happened,.. what fixed it?

Re: Unable to save as .step .igs or .x_t

Re: Unable to save as .step .igs or .x_t
Hi Paul - I am having the same issue with importing and exporting stp and igs files. I reset the registry again and it didn't fix it! Restarting my computer and parallels as well. I did install a windows update today, not sure if that could affect it?
