Description

  • Import of a CATProduct results in Mass of 0. Doing the same for a CATPart results in the correct Mass value
  • When transferring CATIA Mass properties to IBA attributes in Windchill, the Mass properties are computed at the time of saving the CATIA model to Windchill.
  • However, when importing to the workspace, Mass property mapping is only performed for the CATPart.
  • This is due to the fact that when importing a large assembly, CATProduct is loaded without dependencies to achieve better performance. Mass property mapping is not supported for WBM migration.
