[Gmsh] Merge .stp file - scaling issue

Hello, 



I am currently playing around with gmsh to mesh surfaces imported as .stp file (exported from Rhino3d), but somehow once merging the .stp file the unit setting seem to get confused. Example: the .stp file is exported in meters, but once I import the file via Merge the unit gets changed to millimeters (or in other words the geometry gets scaled by a factor 1000). So once I reimport the mesh it is also scaled up by a factor 1000.



Is there a way to control this or to disable such scaling?



Any help is appreciated,



Cheers

Daniel
