Measurement changing from STEP File

[cheezbert]

Hi there,

my issue today is, i would like to import files (mostly sheet metal designs) from GeoMagic from step format.

I already know how to transfer the step file so it becomes a sheetmetal with the whole rool up and bend stuff. Only thing i cant seem to get to work is how to modify cutouts. Is there any way to manage to modify drillings and punchouts and all of that?

I think flexible modeling would be your best option.

thanks, will look into that tomorrow, and hopefully if i dont get it, i can ask that in my in person training next week 😄

will edit that, as soon as i try it!

EDIT: worked like a charm, though i had to take some extra steps, but this makes my day soooo much easier with old files, THANKS!
