Inventor *.ipt files imported in Fusion360 with sketches

[sepehr.ariaei]

Dear Autodesk engineers,

I have a big assembly with subassemblies in Inventor 2019 and we have imported all of the assemblies to Fusion360. Although the part sketches are not uploaded and I am not able to see the sketches to edit, Also features are not translated in a good way too. For example patterns are all expanded into details inside my Fusion360 browser. I mean Inventor and Fusion360 are both from Autodesk. Is it not possible to have these feature in a way to have the parts with sketches to edit in Fusion and have the features translated too?

Thanks in advance

The programs are too different, you're not going to be able to translate between the 2 and keep history. Same for any parametric modelers, you only need one feature that's unsupported and it's impossible to translate with history.

@HughesTooling is correct.  To the best of my knowledge, there has never been a parametric CAD application which can translate design history from another parametric application.  Though Fusion and Inventor are both from Autodesk, they have radically different parametric features, especially in the assembly domain.

Thank you very much for the answers @HughesTooling   and @jeff_strater. Although if there has never been such program why Fusion360 is not going to be the first one? It is not impossible develop it in this way too. Then maybe many people would transfer their projects from SolidWorks and CATIA and NX (your competitors) to a very good and strong program like Fusion360!
