Hi, I can download a design from Shapr3D into Solidworks 2013 without issue but when I try to edit it, Solidworks chrashes. Any suggestions?

That’s something where solidworks support could help. But if you exported in step, then you may want to try x\_t export, it’s a much better option for exporting to solidworks.

Hi, I am confused,  
When I input a .x\_t file into solidworks, all the solids were in a .sldprt file,  
it is hard for me to devide them into different .sldprt files to make a new .sldasm file.  
Could I choose?
