Attaching a parameter or property to a Body and not a Part

Attaching a parameter or property to a Body and not a Part

(OP)
Hello all,

Good afternoon, is there a way in CATIA V5 to attach a parameter or a property to a Body and not to a Part? Perhaps via the API?

When we create a property or a parameter it always is attached to the Part.

Thanking you in advance,

Joseph

RE: Attaching a parameter or property to a Body and not a Part

Joseph - create a blank part, create a new parameter. select paramter in the tree, contextual menu - copy, contextual menu over PartBody - paste.  Is this what you are looking for?  Now you can reorder parameters between Partbody and the orignial location in the tree.

Regards,
Derek
