Issue:

nTop supports importing part files but not CAD assembly structures.
SolidWorks assembly files (SLDASM) are unsupported by nTop.

Applies to:

nTop 2.23
SolidWorks
SLDASM

Solution:

The ability to import CAD assembly files is a popular feature request that we are exploring. A workaround is to save the file as a Parasolid (X_T), but be sure to check the SolidWorks system setting for Flatten assembly hierarchy.
