[Gmsh] cant export geo file as brep or step

[Mark Smith]

Hi Christophe,
Thanks for the quick reply. I was wanting to get the model into netgen to try and mesh it to see if I could get better quality elements, so I suppose I will have to rebuild the geometry again from scratch:-(RegardsMark

Hi Mark,

Gmsh never translates between CAD formats. If you want to export as BREP or STEP, you should build your model using the OpenCASCADE factory.
