For descriptions of these options or to set their default values, click Options. Select Open from the File menu or click in the Quick Access toolbar, or click the Insert tool in the Insert ribbon group on the Design tab.Depending on the selected file type, additional elements appear in the Open window.If you import a file and it fails, the reason for the failure is reported in the Status Log on the lower right edge of the window. For example, if you export a design to an analysis company, and they tag geometry with load positions, boundary conditions, and so on, then when you re-import that design, make changes, and re-export to the analysis company, they will not need to recreate their tags on the new design. Object IDs are preserved when other files are opened or inserted into, and the IDs can also be exported. Object IDs for edges, faces, and bodies are now stored within the .scdoc file. If you work frequently with non- files, we recommend that you set your file options to optimize the importing and exporting process for your needs. Your license type determines which of these actions are supported. Use the Save As command to export parts, assemblies, drawing sheets, and 3D markups to formats read by other applications. Use the Open command to open files created in any supported format.
