hard limit on Sketch import files?

This might be a ridiculous question, but I'm importing a sketch file from a client and cannot edit the base sketch file. The import seems to be capped at 50,000px x 50,000px, which is cutting off parts of the document. Now, I understand why this would be done for performance reasons, but is there a manual way to override that hard cap? Thanks.

    Copying response from the team, "This issue is connected to Sketch pages & infinite canvas, and in some cases the imported content is overflowing outside of our limited canvas in XD. There is a short term workaround: go to layers panel and select the artboards/layers which are outside of the canvas, then copy paste them in viewport."

    Thanks,
