Dear support team,

after upgrading to RobotStudio 7.0 (2019.1), we were not able to open/create projects with the 32-bit version. Also, the interface looks fairly different compared to the 64-bit version. We checked if there is an issue with the license, but the installed licenses are identical.  
Any ideas on what went wrong on our systems?  
A screenshot of a comparison between the interfaces and licenses is attached.  
Thank you in advance.

Kind regards,  
Markus

Hi,  
This is by design. Offline programming and modeling is deprecated in the 32-bit version; it only supports online operation.

How do we import geometry?  
The only way I could import STEP was via 32bit.
