file importati igs

[Alex37]

good morning to all, sometimes I happen that at work I send out 3d drawings in igs format, until here everything goes well, I open them changing colors and materials, but when it comes to making changes it is almost impossible. . .
Do you need to request some other rescue format?
opening it from an igs you see a single imported body and just try to change something disappears everything...
Someone can help me... I have to make changes for tomorrow. Help... .

You have to explain: What does it mean, "it's all clear," because it's written so that my wife comes to mind when alarmed calls me because "the file has disappeared, but I haven't done anything..."
usually because something disappears must be erased, hidden or completely absorbed by a cutting feature etc...
Alternatively, visualization problems due to the graphics card may be.

disappears everything when I try to delete a line or face, I can't change anything in any way, only the extruded cut or offset of the faces.. .
but change the form of some part nothing... .
igs is correct as file to ask?

is the common destiny when working with interchange format files. with a traditional cad like swx it is difficult to move the faces of the solid, while instead you can safely add material or perform cuts.

to change in a more or less satisfactory way the models that originate from neutral formats, are spreading the "context" cads that allow modifications of this kind. I think swx was a little behind this.

 

[geppetto]

ask only .step files are lighter and perfect geometrically. iges, wrml, stl solidworks opens them if they aren't too big (otherwise you plan even if you have a super_machine) and changes or recognition of geometries of that type are much more hostile. Steps are a serious format also for export to other cads such as pro/e or catia.

thanks to everyone, I managed this time to edit the igs file, but I must say it was hard, and certain things I had to abandon them, too complex faces did not manage them. .
Of course these imported files... you want software for every file you send.....

he uses sw2007.
in 2006 the st did not exist and the direct modeling of se and nx were the classics move face of sw.
in that period solidworks was still ahead, because it had featureworks that made recognition of functions, even partial.
in today's state, even though the sw-face shift has been implemented, it remains far behind the st.

also the other sw digest the iges very badly, and having all the sw of the clits does not solve the problem.
just agree on the format.
to say, the iges provide it only when we do not want to make a bat understand to those who receive it (competition...:biggrin::biggrin. swx digests a good part of the formats in circulation. Many times we directly import natives (proes, parasolids...). iges export it practically all, step as well. If you can and you have good reports sent a native and a step.

if the native model has been modeled well with some logic at the level above all of rays should not be big problems to open it then as igs.
the models I create with proe wf4 and convert to igs rather than step, then I open them without problems with sw2009. It is clear that if you get an igs created by who knows who knows what program then I'm trouble. I remember that in its time (very long) when I still worked with power shape of delcam, it was a pig for those who received the igs.

I understand your problem is to change it, manipulate it. If so it is....ciccia, not being native, you make us move face or apply new functions, but no interchange format offers better possibilities.
