Hi,
I have discovered a bug when importing a collada dae file into ArcGIS 10.1 SP2

I am using the 'Import 3D files (3D analyst) tool from the toolbox.

the import user interface permits me to select the file to import.  This is ok.  It then requires me to select the out_featureclass - the destination for the multipatch featureclass.  If I simply enter a filename into the textbox, all is well, and the import works just fine.

However, this textbox has a browse button at the right side.  If I click it, I can select a path and filename for the output.  Using this meachnism causes the import to fail.  sometime it imports the geometry, sometimes not.  It ALWAYS fails to import the textures associated with the collada files.

This is very repeatable.  I have tested it with tif and png files.

Is the output workspace a geodatabase? In order for texture to appear, multipatch should reside inside a geodatabase.
