I am trying to import a step file into solid edge. When the process is complete some of the parts are invisible. It is possible to open the invisible parts in 'solid edge part'. Once opened the part is visible but appears to consist entirely of part copies. I am using V19. When I right click on any part copy the option 'make base feature' is not available. What am I doing wrong?
