Hi Rob,
Nice video. I have been playing with the save as lxo file in 2014. Do you know of any way to get it to export quad meshes as opposed to triangle meshes?

Thanks,
Dean

  Hi Dean,
  
  There is currently no way to export quads from SolidWorks. The Foundry does have the CAD Loader product http://www.thefoundry.co.uk/products/modo/plugins/cad-loaders/
  
  This will import your CAD files using quads.
