Fuselage CAD export units

Peter ZPeter Z asked 5 days ago

Hi,
I notice that when I export a fuselage that I have designed within Flow5 as a STEP file, and then load it into Solidworks, the units are off by a factor of 1000.  That is, the a plane that is 1000mm long in Flow 5 will be loaded as a 1km long plane in Solidworks.  However, wing, elevator, and fin are exported in the correct units. This means that I have to scale the fuselage, but not the rest in SW.
Has anyone else come across this, or am I making some sort of error ?
I’m exporting with STEPControl_ManifoldSolidBrep, but I’ve also tried a couple others with similar results.  Flow5 v7.51, Windows.
