IGES File Options

Import Options
Use facewise connections Select to stitch everything together and make a solid if possible. With this option selected, the import may fail if the model is corrupt.
Import faces independently Import models as a collection of individual surfaces, skipping only the surfaces that are corrupt.
Export Options
Export using JAMA IGES subset Select On or Off.
Export SpaceClaim body
  • Manifold Solid B-Rep Object (MSBO - Type 186): MSBO defines a manifold body with all the necessary topology information like shells, faces, loops, edges and vertices.
  • Trimmed surfaces (Type 144): The boundaries of these surfaces will be represented by Curve on a Parametric Surface Entity (Type 142).
  • Bounded surfaces (Type 143): The boundaries of these surfaces will be represented by Boundary Entity (Type 141). The boundary entity will refer to model space curves and surface parametric curves, with preference set to model space curves.
