I am a long time user of Sketchup, but I'm new to Maxwell. I am using Sketchup Pro '16 and Maxwell Studio 4. I can not seem to find the right workflow to export from SU and import to MS. I have exported using each 3d file type from SU, but have not been able to import the model so that I can assign a material to individual model surfaces. It seems that I should be able to explode the MS object like a SU group or component. I have tried leaving groups and components intact and all exploded before creating the SU export file.
Hopefully this is just a lack of experience on my part and not a software compatibility problem. I purchased Studio and not the SU plug-in so that I wouldn't have to keep upgrading both programs together. Also,I like the flexibility of the stand alone Studio.
Any advice or leads would be greatly appreciated!
