Import an MDTools® MBXML file and automatically creates a new manifold in Inventor.
1. MDTools 790 ribbon > Block panel > Slide out menu > Import MBXML
The Open XML File dialog box displays.
2. Select the MDTools manifold data file.
3. Click Open.
The program reads the input manifold data file and creates a new manifold in Inventor.
Note
When you import MBXML, MDTools creates the manifold in the Virtual-based cavity design.
Use the Convert Manifold command to convert the block design to a Feature-based cavity design.
When you import MBXML, MDTools shows the current status of the block in the top-left corner of the model view.
