Importing Alias data into Fusion
If you are looking to build a rapid prototype part from a set of surfaces in Alias, it may be easier to stitch and repair
the surfaces in Fusion.
- In Alias (Design or Automotive), select the surfaces or shells that you want to export to Fusion.
- Choose File > Send Selected to Fusion. This menu item only appears if Fusion is installed.
The data is saved in a temporary wire file and Fusion launches.
- The first time Fusion launches, a EULA acceptance window opens. Click the box and choose a country from the lister to select your language, then click .
The wire file is opened into Fusion.
If Fusion is not installed or no data was selected in Alias, appropriate error messages are displayed.
- On the Fusion launch screen, choose , or just close the window.
In Fusion, objects are grouped by layer the way they are in Alias, but the DAG hierarchy is not maintained.
