So SolidWorks is stuck in a loop after I tried importing an STL file. The popup just keeps showing up regardless of how many times you press ok.
The STL file can be shared directly if needed, the file exceeds the allowed limit of this forum. (45mb)
In general, Solidworks is crazy bad a handling imports, I always save my work before I start importing something because 50% of the times SolidWorks crashes. I really would like to see this massively improved.
Hello Mono,.. from the error message, it is most likely beyond the 1km cube limitation of SW (parasolid).
so, in the import Options (for meshes) you would need to use another Unit to scale it down?
Otherwise, if you have access to another mesh based program, you would need to scale or reduce the facet quantity down.
I don't seem to be able to find import options anywhere :-/
Mono,.. see attached..
Alright got it down to mm and that worked, all though only as a surface model. However it still sucks that solidworks is stranded in a loop and isn't able to change it to a solid.
I really hate mesh files.
