Open STB File
The STB file format is used by AutoCAD, the popular CAD program for 2D and 3D drawings.
The STB file contains plot styles and lineweights for drawing objects, and in turn, stores properties such as color, shading, grayscale, pen number, lineweight, fill style, and start and end styles line.
STB file display properties are reusable and used to design objects attached to the project, instantly abstracting from object-based color-based layer plot styles, allowing for greater flexibility and portability of the objects.
It is necessary to differentiate in terms of drawing styles for STB and styles based on color, since the latter are defined by CTB files.
According to the instructions of the program, these files cannot be mixed with STB files in AutoCAD projects, however, CTB files are convertible to STB files using AutoCAD.
Therefore, STB files are considered software configuration files and manual opening is not recommended. The ideal software to work with STB files is the following:
