PreserveSurfaceLimits

Note: This option applies to ACIS translators only.

  • Description

This option attaches an attribute to the ACIS surface that indicates whether to preserve surface geometry while translating from ACIS to CATIA V5 to ACIS file format. If you are translating from ACIS to CATIA V5 to ACIS, surfaces are trimmed based on the attribute attached to a surface. The option, ExportUseSurfaceLimits, available in the CATIA V5 Reader performs the surface trimming. The following table lists the possible scenarios while using the PreserveSurfaceLimits option:

ACIS to CATIA V5 Translation CATIA V5 to ACIS Translation Effect on Translation (CATIA V5 to ACIS)
The PreserveSurfaceLimits option is set to TRUE The ExportUseSurfaceLimits option is set to TRUE Surface trimming is not performed for all surfaces.
The PreserveSurfaceLimits option is set to TRUE The ExportUseSurfaceLimits option is set to FALSE Trimming performed on all the CATIA V5 surfaces except for those marked with PreserveSurfaceLimits attributes (those translated from ACIS).
The PreserveSurfaceLimits option is set to FALSE The ExportUseSurfaceLimits option is set to TRUE Surface trimming is not performed for all surfaces.
The PreserveSurfaceLimits option is set to FALSE The ExportUseSurfaceLimits option is set to FALSE All the surfaces from CATIA V5 are trimmed.

false

SaveVersion

  • Description

This option sets the file level while writing the CATIA V5 file. The table below lists the valid string values for this option and the corresponding CATIA V5 file levels.

  • Default

CATIAV5R19


AssemblySaveType

  • Description

This option controls whether to create multilevel assemblies in the CATIA V5 file from an XML-EBOM file. Set this option to Atomic, to create multilevel assemblies in the CATIA V5 file (as present in the original file), from the XML-EBOM file. If this option is set to Aggregate, multilevel assemblies are not created in the resultant CATIA V5 file.

  • Default

"Aggregate"

DisableHybridBody

  • Description

CATIA V5 understands the concept of a hybrid body. By default, all sheet, wire and point entities are written with solid bodies under the same Part Body set. If this option is set to true, sheet, wire and point entities from the source document will be written in a separate Geometrical Set and solid bodies will be written in a Part Body set in CATPart.

  • Default

false
