    SAT files

    I recently loaded a SAT file into X9. It came in OK but when I click a line the whole surface is selected. How can I choose a single line?
    Also how can I change it from wire frame to solid?

    Re: SAT files

    its quiet okay to use sat files..
    if model is okay it should be possible to read it as solid.
    if not it will create a surface model you can everytime create the boundarycurves on your own
    use CREATE/ Curves/Surface
    there you have a choice to create it at only one side you picked or completly
    otherwise you can read it out in an other format and reread it ( e.g. Step) or just let mastercam do the job
    under SOLIDS you can sew model together as an solid
    there are many options you can use as you can see...
    did you had a view @ options of sat reader? if it shoudl read file as surface or solidmodel?
