Is IGES still used as an import/export format?

Still?  How about **EVER**?

Better question:
Who uses general-purpose CADs for electronics work?
(Even *those* apps seem to ignore the format.)

Visio is the WORST thing I ever tried to use to do electrical
documents.

Yes, still. It was used at one time. I have a potential customer who
has an archive of hundreds of old diagrams in IGES format that they
want to import into Visio.

Looks like a dead format then.
Thanks.
