I been made several tries on batch import to put several parts on a file as an assembly to avoid dragging-import them one bye one, but batch import doesn't work, and I ended with a file with one part instead 25 or 35 parts as it should, and worst, that only part is not even recognized on the info in the concept explorer, the layer window reflect "0" objects on the file, please look at the attached movie,

Am I doing something wrong?

Please advice

Thanks

This feature provides batch processing of files. It takes a collection of files and processes them into another file format. For example it will convert 10 dxf files into 10 shark files. It looks like you have it set up to just import. Without an export option set it will just read in the files.

If you have 25-35 files and want to read them all into a single file you can select the files and drag and drop them into a drawing.

Ok, i got it, so it is a function to convert a file from a format to another, not to batch import several parts into an assembly model in shark/VC file as a though,

I misunderstood the functionality, maybe it will be good to extend a little bit the explanation of this on the users guide to, (among others) with an example o case of use, is more clear the explanation From Tim in this topic than the one on user's guide (at least for me)
