Importing CAD Files Using i-drop

    Vasari supports the Autodesk i-drop® drag-and-drop feature. When i-drop objects are pulled from an i-drop–enabled web page, Vasari downloads the file and imports it as if it were pulled from a local file.

    When you drag-and-drop a file, the file is imported with the default settings. If you want to use different settings (for example, Manual - Origin rather than Auto - Center to Center), import the file using the Import CAD tool. See Importing CAD Files Using the Import CAD Tools_Vasari.

    TipMake sure you import the geometric data needed for the Vasari capability that you plan to use. For more information, see Suitability of Imported Geometry.

    To import CAD files using i-drop

    1. From an i-drop–enabled web page, click the thumbnail image of the object.
    2. Drag the file from the web page into Vasari.
    3. Release the object directly into the active view.
