I'm also seeing a STEP color import issue and found some strange results on 0.12 r5150.

If the assembly in the STEP is flat (most files I came acorss), all color information is lost.

If there are subassemblies present however, the ones on the second level get their color imported correctly, while parts on the first level get their color dropped.

Example is attached, which imports in CAD Exchanger just fine (blue lenses in top assembly level).

Note: Don't be fooled by this model being AP203. It's "AP203 with extensions" [1,2]. The result is still the same when you reexport it as AP214 from CAD Exchanger.

With http://free-cad.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/free-cad?view=revision&revision=5396 the import has improved quite a lot. However, I still have another two files which doesn't fully work. And for one of these files there is even a regression.

However, the attached STEP file loads perfectly now.

OK, in rev 5399 the above mentioned file with the regression works perfectly too. The only failing file I have is the seatmotor2.igs file shipped with CAD Exchanger.

Edit: The improved import function is available in the Part module under "Shape". The normal open/import function from the File menu still fails in many cases. Here I plan to ignore again the colors and names.

I'm currently under Linux where I don't have CADExchanger and thus cannot compare but the result looks really good.

OK back on Windows. I see no difference of the display of the DT01 file between FreeCAD or CAD Exchanger.

Hi,

I just got ppa update - 5034 launchpad. released today. I see no difference. Maybe it will be in tomorrow's update.

also, you say it is under "Shape", in Part module. Do you mean under "Part" in part module.

Regards
Petar

Oh sorry, it's indeed Part.

For the seatmotor2.igs I used OCC's OCAF browser and I think FreeCAD loads this file correctly. The file only defines two colors the one referenced by 19 faces and 6 wires and the other color by two wires. That's exactly what FreeCAD does.

I don't know why CAD Exchanger shows something different, maybe an error there or it sets some special mode so that the IGES import leads to a different XDE document.

Nevertheless, I think this bug can be regarded as fixed.
