I imported a step file of an Electrical component that is overly detailed and the part file is 21MB . . . I thought I could just select the exterior surfaces of the parts I wanted to keep and delete the rest of the bodies, but the bodies appear to be retained in the FeatureManager.
So while the bodies / surfaces are no longer showing in the model, they appear to remain in the file as the file is still huge. I was hoping to get it down to a Meg or less.
Is there an easy way to delete all of the "Body-Dlete/Keep" items out of the feature tree? If you select them and delete them, the bodies just show back up in the model and the file size stays the same.
Is there an easier way to do this and I am missing something? How do I get rid of the items circled in red below?
