    Is there a way to get the Composites Numeric Analysis to put the Total mass/weight in the Tree

    We are using the grid design to create aircraft composite panels. We have acquired the weight from Numeric Analysis; however, when we use 'Persistent' we only see the Analysis for the individual plies within the tree; don't see a total anywhere for the panel. Does anyone know a way to get the...

    Regarding Intersection Line

    t300Master, thanks for you suggestion, Please explain the steps to create a reference line from 2 planes with associativity as you suggested. I've tried this in 3D, but I don't see that option in the intersect dialog; the only thing I see is the associative button which does not work when...

    Regarding Intersection Line

    Come on, How hard can it be for Siemens to make the resulting line from 2 planes associative to the planes. I've used Catia for many years; using an 3D intersection is so very common. I understand the work-arounds, but really, when is Siemens going to "Fix" this; work-arounds shouldn't be the...

    Macro_searching a Geo Set item by name - help

    I have a script that finds a Geo Set by a certain name, and proceeds to extract information from that set. The problem I discovered is that the code - 'Set Level1 = OriginPart.HybridBodies.Item("Fasteners")' will actually find the first set with the string "Fasteners" in the name; such as...

    Contextual vs CCP Links in a product... Help

    I wrote a script to copy past hundreds of fastener locations from multiple Catparts to a Ref CatPart for NC riveting. The first time, I found I had the old issue of Contextural links that are tied back to the product opened at the time of copying the points. I later re-wrote the script to...

    Scripting in Developed Shapes, DL1 - Help

    Help needed to identify a scripting problem with Developed Shapes License in R22: I've written a script to transfer hundreds of points/Fastener-Locations from a Curved surface (Folded) to a Developed Flat surface (Unfolded), DL1 license in R23. It works great. because of license issues, I had to...

    Creating Parameters Directly under a GeoSet

    I have a script that creates String Parameters, and then I have to Cut-And-Paste each one into the appropriate GeoSet that holds fastener points of a variety indicated by the Parameter String. Is there a way to create the parameter directly into the GeoSet without the need for the Cut-And-Paste...

    Iso thickness areas modification after the areas have been created.

    I've been working with the 'Grid' method on an aircraft composite skin. I see that once the 'Iso-Thickness Areas' are created using either complete stacking of selection of groups, the selections made are not modifiable/under-intensified after the fact. Example: I made the Iso-Thickness areas...

    Clear a model in session

    I'm looking for help with the "Model in Session" senario- Catia V5 R21. The situation is this; I read up a model and try some things with it; I decide I don't want the things I've done, so I close the model and try to read it up fresh. I get a message that tells me the model I am trying to read...

    Updating CPD Core samples

    I've found that CPD core samples under the Stacking node are not updating with the rest of the CatPart. I've got very many core samples in my model. I've tried to right click on the 'Core Samples' node and select update, but only the top on updates. I've tried group selecting and local update...
