This only applies to those who have installed IronCAD DCS 2022 SP1. When importing STEP files, parts may be "scattered" in the scene. This is a bug in the ACIS kernel as well as linked to the Import PMI function, IronCAD is working on a fix for this.

At the moment there is a workaround for this problem. Do this:

Go to Options>Parts and tick Parasolid then press Ok (unless Parasolid is already selected of course).

Then go to Import Geometry>Menu>Import Options

Uncheck Import PMI then press Ok

Followed by Open
