import file da sketchup..

[ikki78]

Good morning to all.. .
Domandona.. How do I import a sketchup file and be able to work on it? ? .
I tried with stl and obj.. I see them, rough, but I can't do anything!. not even solid from faces!!!. .
is there a preferential format to import data to think3 2011.1?? . I should start from the faces and make solid implodes, add thickness and turn it into sheet metal for the development in floor.. :frown:
Thanks to those who will help me.

That's because thinkdesign matters the stl format like mesh, and it can't handle them.
in thinkdesign if I don't remember there's a license that allows you to enable advanced commands that can convert triangles to surfaces, and at this point the game is made ask the customercare for sure they will know how to give you information + precise ..

to import and then change geometry, you can use the steps or iges that are the standard formats supported

Thank you!
for now in yesterday afternoon I solved like this:

- export to stl.
- import into rhinocerous
- command use _meshtonurbs
- export to iges
- import into thinkdesign
- Solid creation with solid implodes with option simplifies faces.

at this point everything works!
Thanks for the tip!
