Ipt to Step is not working. #83

Open leoheck opened 6 months ago

leoheck commented 6 months ago

Hi, I just found this workbench to convert a model to step. It looks like it is not working for me. I am not sure if this is a problem with my ipt model or a problem with the InventorLoader. I am going to share the output of Freecad, here.

I selected to import the step, but it looks like it is importing all the options presented in the popup window.

20:39:25  Importing: /home/lheck/Downloads/Caja_Metalica_Octagonal.ipt
20:40:06  pyException: Traceback (most recent call last):

According to the log the model has been successfully converted, but failed writing the STEP file /home/lheck/Downloads/Caja_Metalica_Octagonal_ipt/0016.step.

This is not a problem of this library.

Ah, ok.

The generated file is this binary file image

Reading it with the text editor it looks like this. image

It is a data file... image

It should be like this one (ASCII file) image

The cat can see something inside... image

It looks like I have encoding issues or something else, here..

marcocecchiscmgroup commented 5 months ago

This is strange, as it should be ASCII.

Attached. 0016.zip
