Hi,
I have a geometry from CAD exported in STEP format and want to add an
element (here: a volume) to it. I written a geo file containing a Merge
command to get the STEP file, and then geometry commands (Point, Line
etc.) to create additional geometry entities. The problem is that when I
try to rely a new point with a point of the STEP by a straight line,
gmsh crashes.
Questions:
Can I do that at all? Is it possible to import a STEP file and add
points, lines, surfaces and volumes to it in gmsh? If so, why does gmsh
crash then?
If not, is there another way except to edit the STEP file with a “real”
CAD software?

Hi Matthias,
if you want to go for some relatively simple scripting, you can use
opencascade "draw test harnesh". The kind of modifications you could do
with gmsh, you can also do there.
