Does anyone have suggestions for the best file format to share files created from to ?

@lps Ah. Remember that a STEP file is a dumb solid. The feature tree is not retained. That is what makes it a universal format. It effectively gets locked in time when you export. You get a solid that can easily be edited with new features. SolidWorks has a feature recognition tool that tries to recreate a feature tree from a STEP file, but it’s a best guess, and your mileage may vary.

@chrishuck I suspected that would be the case, thanks ... makes sense, that's a big ask;)
