IGES

The IGES 3D import/export interface is an add-on and requires a separate codeword.

IGES import

Icon1 Interfaces toolbar
File menu > Import > IGES

The dimensions of the IGES drawing need to be checked and scaled where necessary. Ideally, the IGES drawing is imported into a new drawing, in order to be checked if its quality and orientation are correct before it is positioned in the final drawing.

IGES export

Icon1 Interfaces toolbar
File menu >Export > IGES

Currently visible 2D data is saved in IGES format. The saved IGES file should always be checked by reading it back.

IGES 3D import
