unit of stp files - 2010/01/23 00:17 Hello ,

I import some stp files in salome 5.1.3 .
Dimensions are in meter and I usually work in millimeter.

What's your habit ?
You convert geometry in mm or do all study in meter.

Re:unit of stp files - 2010/01/23 20:58 By default, SALOME converts to mm. Check the dimensions in your CAD program. ------------------

I do most of my experiments in [mm] but it really only matters when you start assigning properties and load in the ASTER module, before that, Salome has no units as such.

It doesn't do anything. Attention should just be paid.
