Hi @tomas.mlcak,

In Fusion, this option does not exist. Step files only produce solid, 3D geometry - sketches are not included. Just to check - what software is your customer using to import the CAD file? I can see if there is a different solution to this that includes the sketch files (i.e. export as DWG or Inventor file from A360, as opposed to within Fusion.)

Thanks,

Hi @James.Youmatz,

mayby, it is good idea for ideastation, some options to export as in Inventor.

I export from file from A360 in format Inventor and dwg.

When open .iam, I see only solid, no sktetch. In fusion i have show sketch.

When download dwg, i have trooble with open, file save as unknow type of file.

First customer have used 3D-tools.

Second customer have used Inventor (version i don´t know)

Other customers have used, solidworks, catia or they have use any cad.
