Importing OmniGraffle stencils

I switched over to using LucidChart after I stopped using a Mac and OmniGraffle.  I was able to successfully import most of my existing OmniGraffle drawings but would also like to import the stencils (i.e. shape sets) that I also bought for that app.  These come with the extension .gstencil (often itself inside a ZIP).  Is it possible to get these stencils into LucidChart and if so how?  Attempts to import by dragging & dropping or choosing the file all fail.
If you need I can supply example files that I've tried to import.

Thanks

Hi Michael thanks for posting! We don't currently support .gstencil imports only Visio stencil imports. If you think that would be a good feature to add to Lucidchart you can promote it to our product team by filling out this form. But in the meantime as a workaround what you could do is put those shapes in an Omnigraffle diagram export the diagram and import that into Lucidchart. Hope this helps!
