Note: This is a problem with my DVI monitor (and my lack of knowledge on the subject), not the image.. I've only seen the timeout error when I plug into my DVI monitor, not when plugging into HDMI monitors (and I've tried 2 of the latter thus far). I think what's going on with the timeout

If you could Import the board into Altium it is pretty easy to create the step file. Here is how that works. For each connector, add the 3D step file from the connector manufacturer, align connectors to board and pads and then export the complete board in step. I estimate that is would take a
