Collada import error

Gustaffson

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to import a Colada file, this had worked once before however now I get an error message when I try to import another one. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Using RS2020.4.

I get the following error message:
RobotStudio .NET exception: An item with the same key has already been added.

My tip would be to try to get the file in a different format or export it again with different settings in the CAD software. It sucks but sometimes thats the only way forward.
