Sketchup and RDworks are the only design software I’ve used. May I import any of these files into OnShape.

    If you could import a sketchup model, keep in mind that it would only import as a mesh

    RDWorks is laser control software from Ruida that is meant mostly for laser engraving and/or cutting projects designed with other software.  It does have very basic sketch capabilities (like square, rectangle, circle, oval, line, etc.) but Onshape is far, far more capable than that so I would encourage you to explore Onshape a bit more - it might quickly become your preferred design tool.

    I use both Onshape (free version) and RDWorks - if you want to upload one of your *.RLD files here, or PM me with it, I'll see what I can do to get the contents into Onshape.  It may be possible to do a copy of the graphic from RDWorks and paste it into an Onshape sketch..
