Hi everyone; importing components in step format created by solidworks, is it possible to automatically recognize the processes? With solidworks yes, with inventor I don't know how to do it. Use inventor professional 2019. thanks good evening

I assume you mean Feature Recognition, same as in SolidWorks?

Welcome to the Autodesk User's Community..

"is it possible to automatically recognize the processes?" Can you clarify what process you want recognized? Do you mean when you double click on a STEP file you want it to be imported into Inventor automatically?

hello, I mean to recognize, or automatically recreate the processes, extrusions, revolutions, etc.

if I select the part and right-click I don't have the same menu, what should I do?

Does it show in your Add-In Manager as being loaded?

Same as in SolidWorks
