--------------- 
Problem Description: 
--------------------- 
Shape Search - JT Translation method fails


NX Customer Defaults for Shape Search (File -> Utilities -> Customer 
Defaults; Gateway -> Shape Search) provides three model types for solid body 
representation consumable by Geolus; JT, VRML, and STL.


Both the VRML and STL model type representations work fine in Shape Search, 
and there are no problems with Geolus in this case.


If JT files have been imported to Geolus database, you need to use JT model 
type to be able to use the option "Identical" to find identical parts and not 
only similar.


Geolus Version: 7.0 
Managed Mode: Yes and No


Tools => Shape Search... using body option results in 


Alerts 
Fail to generate JT/VRML/STL
