Creo Parametric 12.4.0.0
User Interface Location: ECAD message log.

Description
Two new messages are added to the ECAD message log:

  • The following message is displayed when importing an IDX/IDF baseline or incremental file and a component is missing in the library or in Windchill:

Component <COMP.NAME> (<ECAD Name>, <ECAD ALT NAME> was not found. Simplified extrusion of the Part was created.

  • The following message is displayed when a component’s placement reference is lost during an IDX incremental exchange:

Placement references for component <name> (<ECAD-MCAD ID>, <FEAT ID>) were lost during collaboration and replaced by default references.

Benefits
These new messages make it easier to:

  • Catch missing library items and provide a list of these items to librarians.
  • Identify downstream issues with references during collaboration.
