    Blue Screen V5

    Folks, On occasion, when opening models on my laptop, all you get is a blank blue screen. I tried updating the graphics card, rolling back my system with System Restore to a previous date, and re-installing CATIA. Nothing has worked. Any suggestions? Thanks Peter

    Here are some nitty-gritty pertaining to SkelModels: 1. Skeletons do not show up in the BOM and do not contribute to mass or surface properties. 2. Skeletons are represented by a unique icon in the Model Tree because their functional characteristics are significantly different from those of...

    Catia Export

    FYI: A .model is considered a V4 file. Therefore, make sure you use MigrateV4ToV5 Utility when trying to open with V5. Do not use File > Open. Oh yeah, make sure you hv min P2 configuration. Batch util will not run on P1. Peter

    Importing data from Pro/E

    Plotting

    Hi folks, When plotting a CATIA V4 file in CATIA V5 using CATIA's driver, control is taken away from the user for a significant amount of time. So basically the user has to wait anywhere from 5-10 minutes before being able to use CATIA V5 again. In CATIA V4, plotting wasn't an issue since we...

    Only show the Sub-Assemlies in the BOM.

    Hi, Is there a way to show BOMs of only the sub-assemblies on a drawing? I don't want to show the individual component, just the sub-assy. Any thoughts... tx Peter
