I lost configurations when saving to step. How to do it right?

Leo Shmagin Mar 11, 2015 1:50 PM

I need transfer my design to another office, but they still use SW2013. I try to save to step and lost all configurations. Is it some other way to do it?

step doesn't recognize the features, it just makes the part a solid mass

The way I have done it already was to open the part in "A" configuration, save as a step file, go to configuration "B" and save as a different step file..............

  Or,
  
  put the part in an assembly. Make instances of the part with each configuration and export the assembly file as a step.
