ATTRIBUTES
(OP)
Hi, I have a question regarding attributes:
when we are in top assembly we can give to sub-assembly files attributes , but the attributes are only shown in top assembly: I mean attributes are not presente in sub-assembly files seperatly.
Is there any way to order unigraphics to distribute attributes from top assembly to sub assembly files?

RE: ATTRIBUTES
There is a way of distributing part attrs from top to bottom in assy tree. I would use UG programming tools (GRIP or Ufunc/API calls) ...
UG SoftStore , the automation codes provider thru web , has a public forum page that you can post such problems which are not specific and of a general usage nature. The solution , actually the code , is provided for free in the download section of the web page.
Till this time , this opportunity has been bypassed by the visitors, which might be just because we did not emphasize this feature during the promotions. For this year , our target is to supply at least one utility per month to the UG users community for free.
our web page :
http://www.ugsoftstore.com/default_en.asp
posting the problem and acquiring code is via Forum pages
http://www.ugsoftstore.com/forum/default.asp
downloading free software:
http://www.ugsoftstore.com/download.asp
Note that in downloading section we have small number of utilities... as you, the UG users, post some orders for the new utilities, you will have a chance to find more and more utilities in there for daily usage ....

RE: ATTRIBUTES
I went to ugsoftware to do the download of the code but I don´t know which one it is?
Could you help me ?
And once I have the code,how do I make it work ?
Thanks again.
RE: ATTRIBUTES
The code you are looking for , has not been developed yet. The process for requesting a free utility code should be as follows :
- post your request in the forum page :
htt
- we will analyze the request, if it is a general usage utility then we will put that request into the list of codes that will be developed by our stuff whoever will have some spare time. The development time is approx. 1 month.
- when the code is ready, it will be announced in the same place ,i.e. in the Forum page
- then you can download the code and the documentation from download page :
http://www.ugsoftstore.com/download.asp
How to run these codes ? Please refer to :
http://www.ugsoftstore.com/products_uglicense.asp
to check if you have required license , if so you can run our products by Control+U…
and then selecting the related code ( *.dll)

RE: ATTRIBUTES
The utilities , for propagating attributes like Project_Name , number , quantity from assembly to components , are ready !
There are two utilities which should be run together :
In Download Section > Utilities > NX4
1 - report all part attributes
2 - import part attribs to all components
What to do :
First at assembly level use "report all part attributes" dll file and obtain the attributes of the assy in the listing file , save this file with any name as a text file (*.txt)
Second step is to propagate these attributes to assy components , for this use "import part attribs to all components" and select the attributes text file that you've just saved ...
