How do I know if I'm missing an element of my .step?

3D Design Volume Model

Hello

I am working with Solidworks standard 2017 SP4.1

When I import a .step from a customer on solidworks, sometimes some components are missing. I think this is related to the surface and volume parts. However, I would like to know if it is possible to detect (by an error message or other) if solidworks has not generated an element?

Thank you

Hello

can you post the step for testing

In theory, you should be able to retrieve everything via the import options

I don't know anymore with SW but sometimes an .err file is generated indicating the entities that have not been processed
