Import a G4 Model with Drawings

Open a model compressed to a VXZ transfer file by using the Open File function.

If the archive already contains a model or drawing with the same name, the program will confirm whether the new files are copied over the old files.

You cannot rename the model or its drawing. If the system does not already have a project to which the model or drawing can be saved, one will be created for them.

  1. Select > Open File.
  2. Select the folder from which you want to open the file.
  3. Select Vertex Transfer file (VXZ) or ZIP files as the file type.
  4. Select the file and click Open.
  5. Do either of the following:
    • The files are imported if files with the same name do not already exist in the system. The program notifies you when the import is finished. Click the OK button.
    • If the VXZ file contains files with the same name that already exist in Vertex, select the imported files using the functions in the dialog box.

      Select Files for Importing

      Do not remove the drawing of the model from the archive by selecting a pair of symbols . Instead of remove, you can replace the drawing with a new one or keep the drawing.

Note:
  • You can also import a VXZ file into Vertex by using the Drag and Drop method.
