What is the benefit of this enhancement?
Associative drawing import saves time when creating drawings in Creo Parametric for imported Creo Elements/Direct 3D models with associative drawings. This improvement strengthens the associative transfer of more complex drawings that includes views of the type, cutaway. Dimensions associative to the 3D model outside or within the cutaway area, and from the outside to the inside of the cutaway area, maintain their associativity to the 3D model after the transfer to Creo Parametric. Views with multiple cutaway areas are supported unless their borders overlap.
Additional Information
Tips:
None.
Limitations:
Associative import of the combination of cutaway views and exploded states is not supported. When model changes impact dimensions that reference the cutaway area, fully associative dimension updates are supported for part-level drawings only.
Does this replace existing functionality?
No.
Configuration options associated with this functionality:
None.
