We are investigating MBD functionality within SolidWorks 2019. We are completely new to using these functions to any appreciable level of detail.

After going through the MBD tutorial, I successfully created a STEP 242 file from the drum_pedal assembly used there. I want to read that STEP file back in, in order to see what was exported.

When I do that, I don't see any MBD/PMI annotations. I was expecting to at least see the MBD dimensions. How can I validate the STEP 242 file contains PMI information - short of sending the .STP file to a vendor with a CAM program? Should I expect them to come back into SolidWorks via the .STP file - maybe I'm just not seeing them (visibility of PMI information continues to be... difficult).
