Command Settings

Be.Smart T4I -> Be.Smart T4I -> Edit settings -> Publisher -> STEP

  1. Automatically creates STEP file from active part or assembly after saving.

  2. Set output folder for STEP files. When empty, STEP is created in the STEP subfolder in the same location as the source part or assembly. More can be found in Saving files using relative paths.

  3. Select the application protocol (the purpose and amount of internally stored information) for the exported STEP file.

For larger files, the publishing process may take a long time to complete. In such cases, it is not recommended to use automatic on-save publishing. To speed up your workflows, disable the on-save publishing in settings and use manual publishing instead.
