Errors in 3D canvas when Via size is less than 100um

I'm using Allegro X APD + 23.1 to create a chiplet package for EM simulation models. I noticed that when the finish size of the drill hole, or the plating size of any layer, is smaller than 100um, they are rendered as 100um in 3D canvas. If the platings on all layers are all less than 100um, only a drill hole without any fillings or platings are generated in 3D canvas.

Is it a reported issue? Would it help if I switch to SPB24.1?

    Hello YY20241209613 , I have not seen this earlier but if you have access to X licenses in 23.1, can you invoke 3DX and verify the same?

    The vias are correctly displayed in 3DX Canvas. But it seems that 3DX canvas cannot export STEP models. Would 24.1 support exporting STEP models in 3DX canvas?

    Yes, you can export step from 3DX in 24.1 using 3D Export window.
