Summary


Details

In Teamcenter Visualization documentation, "User Attributes" of PMI in Project Workspace window can be seen.


However, the attributes cannot be found anywhere if I open JT exported from NX.




The documentation:


https://docs.sw.siemens.com/en-US/product/229029598/doc/PL20200109162025490.working_with_3D_models/html/id1638447

Step to reproduce: 


1. Start TCVis and open JT exported from NX


2. Go to PMI tab
 **No User Attributes exist anywhere. 






Solution

NX never exports any User Attributes. It's as designed.

Notes and References

User Attributes are a special PMI type, not properties on a PMI.  They also have nothing to do with model views. They seem to be for old IDEAS data, the NX translator never write them.
