Importing SolidWorks

[jmorphet]

I have been trying different ways to import Solidworks drawings into Fusion 360. I have the Personal License, so I know I can't use the cloud translator. Using Solidworks I exported to .igs, .step, .stl. When I imported .igs and .step into Fusion 360, the models looked right, but there were no sketches. Any suggestions on how to do this for the guys with the personal license?

The license here does not matter.  Even with a commercial license, importing Solidworks (or any other CAD format) does not bring sketches or features with it.  There is no CAD system that I am aware of that can bring in parametric recipe data from another CAD system.

Importing the sketches along with the 3D geometry from Solidworks is not possible, regardless of your license type.  I've heard that the step file standard does have this capability, but I've never seen it actually used.
