Features Not Following A Symmetrically Driven Part
Features Not Following A Symmetrically Driven Part
(OP)
Using CATIA V5R18;
I designed a left hand part and then created a right hand part with the “Paste Special, As Result With Link” function in a new part file. The problems that I’m having are the following;
1. I have a reuse pattern that doesn’t work in assemblies
2. I have threaded holes that doesn’t show up in drawings
Anyway to get all of the master features to show up in the slave files?
Any response will be greatly appreciated!

'Invert x coord of part origin x direction vector
dblPosition(9) = -dblPosition(9)
dblPosition(0) = -dblPosition(0)
objProd.Position.SetComponents dblPosition
objProd.Name = "Sym X " & ItemToRenamePartNumber
End Sub
I added the above line to rename the product
First you make an instance copy of the product to symmetry. Next run the script. I have noticed that R20 step does not output the geometry correctly but iges does. I must be an undocumented feature of R20 because R19 worked fine.
