Import Options
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Import all generic attributes (global and related to single entities) as metadata. |
off |
Do not import attributes related to single entities. Only import global attributes. |
%attribute1%attribute2%attribute3 |
Import specified generic attributes as metadata. The attribute names are listed, separated by a character that you choose, and inserted as the first element of the string. The example uses '%' as a separator. You can choose another character as a separator, in case one of the listed attribute names contains '%'. HyperWorks CFD will recognize it as it is the first character of the string. |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Avoid using the conversion functions provided by third-party (default). |
off |
Use the conversion functions provided by third-party. |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Assign body identifier as
metadata.
|
off |
Do not assign body identifier as metadata (default). |
Value | Description |
---|---|
double |
A negative value (default) indicates to use the auto cleanup tolerance. A value greater than the calculated auto cleanup tolerance indicates to use that specific tolerance. Refer to the CAD Cleanup Tolerance. |
Value | Description |
---|---|
integer |
Read color attributes of geometric entities as metadata with integer values.
|
on |
Read color attributes of geometric entities as metadata.
|
off |
Do not read color attributes (default). |
Value | Description |
---|---|
Parts |
Generate a full part-based hierarchy. |
BOMOnly |
Generate an empty part-based hierarchy. |
TreeOfComponents |
Generate an assemblies/components based hierarchy. |
PackIntoSinglePart |
Consolidate hierarchy into a single part. |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Read density value as metadata (default).
|
off |
Do not read density value. |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Preserve the original geometry edges, instead of merging them together during the import cleanup phase. |
off |
Merge edges together during the import cleanup phase (default). |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Import entities that are hidden, blanked, or no show. |
off |
Do not import entities that are hidden, blanked, or no show (default). |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Import CAD coordinate systems as system collectors (default). |
off |
Do not import CAD coordinate systems. |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Import the model for visualization purposes only. This skips many of the import steps (cleanup, stitching, solid creation, and so on) to provide a faster import. The resulting model may not be suitable for other uses. |
off |
Import the model in the normal fashion (default). |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Import free curves (wireframe entities) into the model (default). |
off |
Do not import free curves. |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Import free points into the model (default). |
off |
Do not import free points. |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Read layer value as metadata.
|
off |
Do not read layer value (default). |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Generate metadata with the original CAD hierarchy within the
part.
|
off |
Do not generate metadata with the original CAD hierarchy within the part (default). |
Value | Description |
---|---|
string |
The string is prefixed to all metadata names. No prefix is used by
default. See CAD Metadata Naming for more details. |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Import original CAD entity IDs as
metadata.
|
off |
Do not import original CAD entity IDs as metadata (default). |
Value | Description |
---|---|
double |
Define the model scaling factor during import. Default is 1.0. |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
For trimmed surfaces, shrink the corresponding base surfaces to only enclose the extents of the external trimming contour, plus a narrow frame. |
off |
Do not modify the base surfaces (default). |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Read surfaces, but do not create solid entities. |
off |
Create solid entities (default). |
Value | Description |
---|---|
Body |
Generate body-based component (default if
CreationType =Parts ). |
Layer |
Generate layer-based component. |
Part |
Generate part-based component. |
General |
Keep component as in CAD (default if
CreationType =TreeOfComponents ). |
Value | Description |
---|---|
on |
Stitch surfaces belonging to different components. |
off |
Do not stitch surfaces belonging to different components (default). |
Value | Description |
