I am helping my engineer work with a customer on a quote and they have sent stp and ProE files. I have tried various options for importing, but I don't see any dimensions and can't view anything in the feature tree other than the "imported" solid body. (We've also gone back to the customer and asked for a drawing with dimensions and they then sent a Parasolid file, but when I open it in SW, it is completely blank - nothing is there)

I'm working on four separate part files, and am importing these into SW2007.

BTW I've never done this (importing) before so please be gentle. I went through the ACAD import tutorials and the help file on ProE imports already. The best I've gotten thus far is:

• using the "Make Drawing from Part/Assembly" button
  
• laying out the Standard 3 View on a sheet
  
• and using Smart Dimension to dimension the radius of an interior curve
  
• and then using Autodimension to fill in the rest
  

I'm afraid the initial Smart Dimension is not trustworthy - how certain can I be that this is the right dimension? Or does SW just guestimate?
