Hi,  
I’m designing some products which will be produced in a combination a 3D prirnted part, an anodized aluminium part and rope.  
Shapr designs are ready and now I would like to render this a an app like A360 or Fusion360 in colors.  
I seem to be unable to do this with exports in all possible formats.  
Should this be possible? Am I doing something wrong? Other app to be used?

You can export to STP and import it to Fusion.

I see. Currently colors are not exported to STEP files. With the next release this will be fixed 🙂
