@ work I am desigining a shield style board for something. But that something has connectors and mounting holes on all the annoying places.
So I would like a good step file for that something so I can see how my shield will fit.
I opened pcb editor 8.0, I managed to import the Altium project of that something.
I opened the 3D viewer and to my suprise I was looking at a fine 3D model of that something. It actually worked. I am missing some ICs but whatever.
But now. I tried to export a .step file in the PCB editor. And I just had a flat green rectangle with some holes in it. Completely useless.
Ofcourse I want what I am seeing in the 3D viewer in a .step file so I can have the 3D model on my shield.
Than I tried to load the saved Kicad board file in FreeCAD but FreeCAD start complaining about missing step files for every single component, which ofcourse it totally logical.
But If I can see… all things of something in the 3D viewer, isn’t there a way to get what a .step file out of it?
Kind regards
