In this proces a usually only want to im/export the parts with its history, colour and rendermaterial, but I don't want the other empty layers, unused linestyles, userviews etc. (after several import-export actions i have tens of empty layers, userview and linestyle which make working confusing). Could the import and export to and from Shark get some filters/checkboxes? My suggestions for filters are: - empty layers - linestyles - userviews - userplanes - ? Maarten den Hartog

But after a few imports of Shark part into an assembly i get a lot of user views (today i had more then 100!! users views after importing 2 Shark files). And deleting user views is a hell of a job. Can we have something to easily remove user views. Can we have an import filter for Shark import for user views, line styles etc. Maarten den Hartog Built 966

It would be nice if this was done automagically at export, and should probably work that way, but at least there is now a tool to remove all of those layers with one command.
