Configuration for Step

Parameter Default value Usage Format
FDT_REPRESENTATION
1
What representation mode for FDT ?
[0] -> Only "frozen" graphical information (3D tessellation or polylines)
[1] -> Full semantics, with given priority to "frozen" graphical information
[2] -> Full semantics, with given priority to the "placeholder" graphical information (receiving system is in charge of recreating graphics based on it)
integer
READ_COMPONENT_NAME
1
Gives priority to specific STEP PRODUCT fields for Dtk_Component naming
[0] -> Considers only PRODUCT.ID
[1] -> Gives priority to PRODUCT.ID, over PRODUCT.NAME, if not empty
[2] -> Gives priority to PRODUCT.NAME, over PRODUCT.ID, if not empty
[3] -> Concatenates PRODUCT.ID and PRODUCT.NAME (if different)
integer
READ_EXTENDED_ASCII
0
Choose code page or encoding to be used in case of non-standard ASCII characters encountered
[0] -> UTF-8
[1] -> Code page 936 (Microsfot Windows, simplified chinese)
[2] -> Code page 855 (Cyrillic)
integer
READ_COLOR_UNLISTED
2
Should we read non-correctly defined colors (not in a list) ?
[0] -> No
[1] -> If some colors are correctly defined, ignore only those non-correctly defined
[2] -> Yes
integer
READ_ORPHAN_BODY
3
Should we read orphan bodies (not attached to a product) ?
[0] -> No
[1] -> Only if no product is defined
[2] -> Only if no product is defined, or several products are defined but no assembly
[3] -> Yes
integer
WRITE_VERSION
4
Writes Step Version
[0] -> AP214 if WRITE_FDT=0, AP242E1 otherwise
[1] -> AP203
[2] -> AP214
[3] -> AP203E2
[4] -> AP242E1
[5] -> AP242E4
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
3
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
2
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
