Onshape importer doesn't support VARIABLESTUDIO element_type

Omniverse Isaac Sim

Hi,

it looks like the latest onshape importer does not support this somewhat recent feature, and therefore fails to parse files.

is there a fix coming?

the error looks like this:

Hi,

Thanks for reaching out.

I’ve looked into the error you’re getting and it looks like the latest Onshape importer doesn’t support the VARIABLESTUDIO element type. This is a relatively new element type that was added to Onshape in 2023.

I’ve checked with the Onshape team and they’re aware of the issue and are working on a fix. They don’t have an ETA for the fix yet, but they’ll let me know as soon as they have more information.

In the meantime, you can use the older version of the Onshape importer. To do this, go to the Onshape website and download the OnshapeImporter-2022.2.1.zip file.

Once you’ve downloaded the file, unzip it and run the OnshapeImporter.exe file.

This will open the Onshape importer and you’ll be able to import your Onshape files.

I hope this helps!

Let me know if you have any other questions.

the link where to look for the importer on the onshape website seems incorrect, and i can’t seem to be able to find.

i tried contacting onshape but they seem very confused by all of it.

can you provide the link to the older importer i should try?
