About 3dxml
Note that when exporting a .CATDrawing file to 3dxml format, only design sheets
are saved and not detail sheets. The 3dxml file contains the description of
the sheets and views (their name, position, angle and scale) but no
semantic information about elements in the view. So, elements are saved in
a graphical format.
