Configuration for Step

Parameter Default value Usage Format
READ_FDT
0
Drives Reading of FDT
[0] -> No
[1] -> graphic only
[2] -> semantic + graphic (preferred "classic graphics")
[3] -> semantic + graphic (preferred "placeholder graphics")
integer
READ_COMPONENT_NAME
1
Drives Reading of Component Name
[0] -> default : PRODUCT.ID only is taken
[1] -> PRODUCT.ID is prior to PRODUCT.NAME if equally meaningfull
[2] -> PRODUCT.NAME is prior to PRODUCT.ID if equally meaningfull
[1 or 2] : if not equally meaningfull, the most meaningfull is taken
[3] -> if different, PRODUCT.ID and PRODUCT.NAME are concatenated
- Equally meaningfull : ordered from (1) empty or void, (2) number only or "ID_"+number, (3) alphanumeric
integer
READ_EXTENDED_ASCII
1
Drives reading of non-ASCII characters
[0] -> Consider UTF-8 (default)
[1] -> Consider Microsoft CodePage
[2] -> Consider Cyrillic encoding
integer
READ_COLOR_UNLISTED
2
Drives Reading of non-correctly defined colors (not in a list)
[0] -> Ignore
[1] -> Ignore if some colors are correctly defined, reads elsewhere
[2] -> Reads all colors
integer
READ_ORPHAN_BODY
3
Drives Reading of orphan bodies (not attached to a product)
[0] -> No
[1] -> only if no product at all
[2] -> also if product(s) but no assembly
[3] -> also if assemblies (= always)
integer
WRITE_VERSION
0
Writes Step Version
[0] -> AP214 if WRITE_FDT=0, AP242E1 otherwise
[1] -> AP203
[2] -> AP214
[3] -> AP203E2
[4] -> AP242E1
[5] -> AP242E3
integer
WRITE_FDT
1
Drives Writing of FDT
[0] -> No
[1] -> semantic + graphic
[-1] -> graphic only
integer
WRITE_FDT_POLYLINE
0
Selects mode for graphic output
[-1] deprecated -> character based
[0] -> default (same as [2])
[1] -> minimal graphic (known as "placeholder")
[2] -> 3D polyline
[3] -> 2D tesselation
[4] -> 3D tesselation
integer
WRITE_ITEMNAME
2
Writes Names of Items (topological items)
[0] -> No (empty name)
[1] -> name from CAD if defined, else empty
[2] -> "n° iii" : ID from CAD
[3] -> "no iii" : ID from CAD
integer
WRITE_PROPERTY
0
Writes Attributes and Properties
[0] -> no
[1] -> Product Data
[2] -> also general attributes (metadata) except "File Property"
[3] -> all general attributes, also "File Property"
integer
VALIDATION_PROPERTY
0
Drives Computing/Checking of Validation Propeties (Read & Write)
[0] -> No
[1] -> computes simple validation properties
[2] -> computes geometric validation properties (except clouds of points)
[3] -> computes also clouds of points
integer
WRITE_LENGTH_UNIT
0
Controls Length Unit on Writing
[0] -> keeps original unit : MM (default)
[between 1 and 6] -> changes writing unit and converts data from MM
[1] -> MM [2] -> CM [3] -> M [4] -> KM [5] -> INCH [6] -> FOOT
integer
WRITE_COMPRESS
0
Controls Writing of Compressed Step Files
[0] -> No
[1] -> Yes
integer
WRITE_MESH
0
Controls writing of geometry as is or converted to Mesh
[0] -> write geometry as is
[1] -> convert geometry to mesh when writing
integer
WRITE_EXTREF
0
Controls writing of an assembly with external references
[0] -> No (monolithic file)
[1] -> Per Part (one file per leaf component + one file for the whole assembly set)
[2] -> Nested (one file per component, whether leaf, sub-assembly, main assembly)
integer
