Summary


Details

Using the information below to control the JT file name output from NX which is stored in the DirectModel dataset named references is no longer working properly in NX11.0.2. 
(1) Make sure the following environment variable is being used by the managed mode NX session: UGII_GENERATE_MULTI_CAD_JT=1 Note: Without the above variable, the following setup will not yield the proper result. 
(2) In the tessUG.config file (generally in this location: UGII_BASE_DIR\PVTRANS folder), make modification to the following three options to yield a different JT naming result: 

configureFileName

* This option is applicable only when your NX data is managed inside Teamcenter and you want to store the JT files back inside Teamcenter OR save outside of Teamcenter.

* This option affects the JT file name produced on disk or saved inside Teamcenter.

* This option works depending on the value of other 2 options: appendRevision and appendItemName.

* The following example shows the effect of this option. In this example, Item ID=002468, Item Revision=A, Item Name=COMP. Take a look at the effect on the JT file name with different values of this options. 

Option 1 - 002468_A_COMP.jt
configureFileName = true
appendRevision = true
appendItemName = true 

Option 2 - 002468_COMP.jt
configureFileName = true
appendRevision = false
appendItemName = true 

Option 3 - 002468_A.jt
configureFileName = true
appendRevision = true
appendItemName = false 

Option 4 - MODEL$.jt
configureFileName = false
appendRevision = true
appendItemName = true



Solution

To have this functionality work properly in NX11.0.2, add this extra setting at the end of the tessUG.config file: 

 appendTCIdentifiers = "UNIQUE_ITEM_IDENTIFIERS"
