Naming within parasolid assemblies
Naming within parasolid assemblies
(OP)
When I export a parasolid file, then use File, Open to re-import it into NX, each body gets created as a component but my component naming is not preserved. Instead, the new components are named "{filename}_id636_x_t".
Is it possible to include include naming information within parasolids?

Are names preserved within step files?

My assemblies are each several hundred parts, I cannot practically enter all the names manually.
If there is not already an option within the software to fill-in null body names with the component file name at the time of export, this would be a valuable feature to add.

While your request is nice, if it doesn't have something in the spec to require naming, or naming is not allowed, the Siemens' reviewer could just pass your request off as their translator meets the spec.

NX, however, uses a name field that is null by default. My request is to be more comprehensive in filling this null field with something useful before resorting to A) the top level assembly component name and B) a random internal ID number. It would be more useful, for me and for many other people, if the individual component name which contains the solid body is used.
