MoI finds a home

Hi Michael G.

I could not find any settings in Alibre for STEP export, but I imported the same Alibre AP 203 Step file into ViacAD, TurboCAD Pro and IronCAD's Inovate and they all came in correct to scale in millimeters.

The steps you showed me earlier work fine, but my concern is that if someone were to receive a STEP or SAT file from Alibre and open it in MoI without paying attention, they could be heading for disaster downstream. Normally I would be working in the reverse, bringing MoI data into Alibre, but I wanted reference geometry for a test when I discovered this.

I'll go ahead and try the other import/export file types between Alibre and MoI and let you know what I find out.
