  Incident Diagnosis:
  Performance problem when converting a CATPart
  document to step file. Time is consumed by
  computing the graphic properties of the converted
  bodies.
  .
  Development Request Justification:
  Performances can be enhanced by changing the
  computing algorithm :
  - current step algorithm uses selection objects,
  scanning each face of the converted CGM bodies
  - improved algorithm reuses directly the graphic
  properties written on the CGR of the CATPart
  document.
  For the fast algorithm to be used in generic step
  conversion, the no show part of the visualization
  needs to be streamed in the CGR : this is
  currently not the case.
