impossible to import the STL file in 3D project

Fausto Franchini

Dear Altair Community,

we found following error after to try to import the STL file in 3D project (flux version 2019.1):

Hi Fausto, 

This error message is very general and doesn't indicate what is the problem. If possible can you share the STL file  and I can check further. keep in mind this is a public forum, if you can't share the file here, please open a support ticket and attach the file to it. 

Another possibility is to try to convert the STL file to a solid body in other format (STPES,IGES,...etc) and then import it as CAD model in Flux.  I believe this will be more stable than STL import. 

Thanks,
