Hi Tom,
I found also
https://github.com/stepcode/stepcode
that could be an interesting class lib...
I agree that if a STEP support will be added, it would be very useful
(necessary) to add also the STEP visualization in 3d-viewer...
Adding STEP modules to the project without an internal and direct 3D
feedback, would need a ping-pong work:
add a module, export boards and modules open those in MCAD check
mechanical positions, reopen in kicad, move modules, export again and
re-check etc...
I was thinking that may be an intermediate step in exporting the full
board for mechanical purposes could be to add the option to export the
plain pcb with bounding boxes of the vrml modules... that would be a
nice feature to add to the stable release...

I'd also like to add STEP visualization in the near future (post-stable ofc)

PS. It is possible to export a hierarchical assembly in STEP from OCC.
No need to write a special library for that.
