Hi, Bart!

Thanks for pointing me to Salome.  I've played a bit around with
it and created a simple 3D geometry consisting of the union of a
cube and a sphere:

I exported this to a STEP file:

  http://www.kuleuven-kortrijk.be/~bartv/cube_and_sphere.step

but when I try to open this STEP file in gmsh with

  $ gmsh cube_and_sphere.step

i get errors:

  Error   : Something wrong in edge loop
  Warning : OCC STL triangulation failed

I encountered with the same problem using FreeCAD and Salome.
Did you solve this problem?

Thanks
