    Part studios: use the "derive" function (you can search for it with Alt+c)
    Assemblies: use the "insert" function (i key on keyboard)
    Drawings: use the "insert view" function (you can search for it with Alt+c)
    Importing other formats from documents page: Create -> Import files...
    Importing other formats within document: + (at bottom left corner) -> Import...

    Hope this helps!
