Need help about STEP color properties

[lzanettin]

Hello,

I have a question about color properties.

I have a part with a blue color using some properties like Intensity value 100.

When I export this part to step,

the Intensity parameter change to 85.

same problem with all colors.

Is there any way to set the step exportation with an Intensity value of 100 ??

see examples attached.

Thanks!

Have you tried different STEP formats (config.pro option step_export_format)?

I believe there were some differences in color handling for assemblies, but I don't remember, whether this could be one of the symptoms.

Yes,

I tried:

step 203_is

step 203_is_ext

step 2014_is

I have to try all the others?

PTC is very poor in utilizing all the available rendering properties on import formats.

This is mostly left to the 3D rendering tools like Bryce and such.
