Imported STEP/STL 3D files become severely pixelated after pasting and closing the paste 3d model box
Hello everyone,
I received a bunch of files from another business owner for some vintage keyboard side panels. He was running fusion 360 software and sent them in both in STEP and STL format. When I import them into Carveco maker plus they appear to be in good order, the holes are are in good detail and such. As soon as I paste it, the image becomes very pixelated to the point when I run a simulation for the relief toolpath it doesn't pick up all the detail, where holes and other engravings should be.
I really don't want to recreate them from scratch. I tried changing the resolution before and after importing and pasting and it doesn't seem to work.
Any advice tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated.

Matt,
Could it be it was a nasty file? I have received those and the fellow I received them from was so amendment that his files were perfect until I showed up at his office to have him open them up. They were not.
Maybe the file is screwy? When ever I send a file I am very concerned that they are right I get verification as soon as possible, Give him (or her) a call to have them to double check.
By the way with out pictures I can only go by my experience, so the next time take a screen shot of what it looks like before pasting down and after. There isn't much you can do to screw up a step file it usually comes out the way it looks before pasting, but the way you're describing it sounds like a jpg file.
