importing solidworks 2017 parts to Fusion 360 personal

Hi,

I have solidworks 2017 and fusion 360 personal. When I upload a part as an SLDPRT or STEP file, the part is imported, as what appears to be, a wire frame. I did try to change to opacity of the body, but that did not make a difference.

Any assistance on this is greatly appreciated!

Attach your *.sldprt file here.

Attach your *.stp (STEP) file here.

Can you File>Export your *.f3d file to your local drive and then Attach it here to a Reply?

I opened the STEP file and it came in fine. Perhaps you have your Visual Style set to Wireframe. In the animated GIF, I change your model from Wireframe to Shaded with Edges.
