When importing a file into Onshape, is there a feature that recognizes the features so I can edit the Sketch? I am trying to edit a sheet metal part that roughly the same.
Thanks

  Hi Josh, no there is not. You can use the direct editing tools though (move face, etc.)

  If you are specifically importing CAD of a sheet metal model and want to manipulate it with sheet metal tools in Onshape, take a look at this workflow:
