Importers are usually named after the CAD file format they import. For more information about an importer, click the icon to the left of the component name. |
Whenever an update is available for an importer, this will be listed underneath the component name. For example, "(Build 650: Download 235 Kb)" where 235 Kb is the size of the update download. To update the importer, click Download. Once you have successfully updated the importer, the "Download" text will disappear, and the build number of the importer will be updated. You are entitled to importer updates for the length of your maintenance period. You can determine how often SpinFire™ checks for available updates from the Application Settings page of the Options component.
