But once I merge this file in Gmsh, the surface gets scaled, basically the edge Point now gets the coordinates (10000, 10000, 0), even though in the .stp-file it still had the coordinates (10, 10, 0). This does not happen when the Units in the .stp files are set to Millimeters. So it is definitely Gmsh (resp. OpenCASCADE) who does something with the unit Settings.<br data-mce-bogus="1"></span></p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" hasownproperty="
