Teamcenter Visualization

[Vishu_18]

I was not able to see the objects, when I open the jt file in Visualization application. I had kept save Jt data option ON and saved the part. But still I can't see anything when I open the jt part in Visualization application. Can I know what's the issue.
Thanks in advance!

Is the part an assembly ? - Only the parts containing solid bodies ( NX Assemblies does normally not contain solids) will write solids to the JT file.
Do you use Teamcenter ? if yes, open the part in the Structure manager and view it there, the Structure manager will "collect" all the components and display these together.
Is the solids included in the correct reference set ?
by default NX will only write the contents of he "model" reference set to JT. (can be set differently)

I was able to see the objects from child components when I open jt file in visualization through structure manager. But I was not able to see the objects of child components when I'm opening jt file through teamcenter Visualization. I was only able to see the bodies of the current assembly. Can someone help me with this?

imagine the following assembly structure in NX:
Assembly1
|-component1
|-Component2

in NX , the Assembly1 does not contain any geometry. it only contains "links/pointers" to the two components , these "pointers" tell NX to load Component1 and 2, and when component1 and Component2 have been loaded these will be visible in NX.
Component1 and Component2 contains solid bodies, = Geometry. When you save these files, the solids will be stored in the respective component file under each's Item revision..
If you tick the option in NX "Load structure only", and then load the assembly1 you will not see any geometry since that is all in the component files.

When you save a part in NX, and have the option "save JT data" = ON, the default setting is that the content of the "model" reference set is written to a JT file which is stored under the same Item revision.
Since the assembly1 does not have any geometry , the model reference set is empty, the corresponding JT file will/will not * be written to TC. ( *depending on the local setup)
If there is a JT file under the assembly1 item revision, its probably empty.
If you check one of the JT files for the components, these will / should show the corresponding solids .
To see the assembly in the Teamcenter Viewer, Teamcenter MUST assemble the assembly since it does not have a single file showing all.
Under the Itemrevision for the assembly1, there is adataset named "BVR" ( Bom View Revision) this stores the assembly structure in Teamcenter.
Send that to the Structure editor and there open the viewer. Teamcenter will now assemble all the JT files into an assembly.
