Summary


Details

JT file is automatically saved when you save NX part. However, when opening it in Teamcenter Visualization, there is no layer information, so cannot control it by layers.

In case of Export JT command, layer information exists in the exported JT file (File > Export > JT).

Reproduced Steps:

1. Create parts organized by layers(A geometric shape is one solid.)


2. File > Save > Save Options

-1. Turn “Save JT Data” ON > OK

-2. File > Save > Save


3. Open the JT in Teamcenter Visualization > Layer Filters


Solution

The behavior is working as expected. No layer information is output if there is only a single geometric shape (such as a solid).

WORKAROUND: do one of the following

1. Add wireframe such as a point and a line to create multiple geometric shapes.

2. Use File > Export > JT command instead.

Notes

In case of WA "1" above, it's necessary to save the part after adding the wireframe shape explicitly in "MODEL" reference set.

Below is the result by the workaround above. There is Layer information as expected.
