Heath Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 I had someone send me a drawing in .igs format so I could get it in 3-D. When I import the .igs it is a bunch of nurbs curves. How can I make this something I can give fill properties to? Heath Quote Link to comment
Kaare Baekgaard Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 You can't. Iges is supposed to be standardized, but I have had different results importing from different sources. Also separating objects can sometimes be a problem after import. If you have other 3D programs than VW, maybe you can try one of them as a translator. If not ask the source to change settings and export again. When it works, it is quite wonderful compared to DXF/DWG. Quote Link to comment
Chris Dordoni Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Heath If you can have the person save two IGS files, one with trimmed and the other with untrimmed nurbs, you may have better luck figuring out where the problem is. Chris Quote Link to comment
