ASM to Step to Part , component position error.

[Yogesh.T]

Why the component (Guide frame) leaves it position while converting .asm to .step to .prt. Purpose is to get all comp in one with no history but right positions. Pl Guide what is making this move.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

use hidden config.pro option ... intf3d_in_as_part yes

Read https://community.ptc.com/t5/3D-Part-Assembly-Design/Import-assembly-steps-as-a-single-part/td-p/579717

Note: You have to add the option into config.pro manually in Notepad.

Hello,

Thx

Will try that suggestion.

Whay about .asm to shrinkwrap to step to .prt?

When you try to import a step assembly as a part, it will put all the parts at the coordinate system.

With the config.pro option Martin suggested, when you import the step assy as a part, it will keep the correct location of the parts as they were in the assembly.

I do not see that option. See attached

As @MartinHanak had disclosed, you must manually type this into the config.pro file. Hidden options will not show up in the options editor UI.
