Retain timeline saving as Inventor

[Anonymous]

Is there any way to retain the timeline when you save a design in Inventor format?  It seems like there should be as it's all the same tools (the menu icons are even the same) and it's all Autodesk.  We use Fusion for some things (notably electronics designs and occasional design sharing between different physical locations) but do most of our modeling in Inventor as we've found it to be more stable.  On a related note, is there any way to maintain decals/canvases during the conversion?  We're primarily finding this to be an issue with the silkscreen layers on PCBs which come through as a canvas - you can't save the image and it doesn't translate when you save the design as an Inventor file.

When a model is exported from Fusion 360 to an Inventor assembly and parts, the parts all come in as Solid Bodies without any of the timeline features that may have existed in Fusion 360.  In Inventor, you do have the option to use Direct Edit on these solids for editing if needed.  So the answer is NO to your question.
