Feature, Dimension, and Parameter Names in a Group
After you place a UDF in a new part, new names are assigned to the features and dimensions according to their consecutive order in the part. Parameters within a feature are always unique when created. Therefore, when a feature in a group is renamed, the parameter is still unique to the now renamed feature.
|
If the UDF has features, dimensions, or parameters with user-defined names, these names are preserved in the resulting group.
|
When feature names already exist in the destination model, features within the group are automatically renamed. To view the original names, select the feature, right-click, and select > .
For example, the model tree below contains two UDF groups: Group TEST1 and Group TEST2.
• The model already contains Extrude 1, therefore, the Extrude features in Group TEST1 are renamed Extrude 2 and Extrude 3 because this is how they fall sequentially in the model.
• The Annotation Feature in GROUP TEST2 is renamed Annotation 3 because Annotation 1 and Annotation 2 already exist in Group TEST1.
• The AE_NOTES are renamed to AE_NOTE0, AE_NOTE1, and AE_NOTE2.
