SolidWorks Import Options dialog box

Sets the options for the import of a SolidWorks file.

Access:

In the Open or Import dialog boxes:

Set the Files of type to *.prt, *.sldprt, *.asm, or *.sldasm
Select or browse to the file.
Click Options.

Note: If you choose to translate a file using the Import command, some import options are not available.

Translation Report	Embed in Document. Select to display the translation report icon , under the 3rd Party browser node , in your new file. To view the translation report, double-click the report icon, or right-click select Edit. Save to Disk. Select to save a copy of the report to the Component Destination Folder.
Entity Types to Import	Solids. Select to import solid bodies and water tight stitched shells as individual solid bodies. Surfaces. Select to import surface bodies. Water tight stitched shells are imported as solid bodies. Wires. Select to import wires.
Data Organization	Import into Repair environment. Select to check the model for errors and create a repair node in the browser. You can edit, diagnose, and repair an imported base body in the Repair environment. A repair body participates in the model history. Import Assembly as Single Part. Select to import the assembly as a single part. Choose from: Single Composite Feature to import the assembly as a single composite feature in the part environment. Multiple Solid Part to import the assembly as individual solid bodies in the part environment.
Units	Import Units. Converts the imported geometry and parameter values to the selected units.
Post Processes	Check Parts during Load. Select to perform a quality check of the solid body imported data. If bad data is found, the body is marked with in the browser and the remaining bodies are not checked. Note: This option is in addition to the automatic check of composites, and it can significantly increase the amount of time required to translate a file. Enable Advanced Healing. If selected, advanced healing operations like surface trimming, spline surface reconstruction, and the re-intersection of surfaces, are performed on the imported models to make them watertight and usable in Autodesk Inventor LT. Due to the nature of the healing operation, the process can add computational time to the import process and slight alterations to geometry in the original file may occur.
