Edit model downloaded from Thingiverse

Anonymous — Sat, 13 Jun 2020 16:51:53 GMT

hi, I found some items I would like to print on Thingiverse, but would like to make some refinements before moving on... I have tried all kinds of methods of importing the STL files, but can only manage an uneditable mesh.

How can I edit an STL in Fusion 360... I have th similar issue with AutoCad

The mesh converts to this, which I cannot edit.

Surely it must be possible to import something so simple?
