Avoid update of translation in drawing?
Avoid update of translation in drawing?
(OP)
Hello,
I'm having a bit of a problem updating some drawings on CATIA V5:
I have added translations to my part models in order to have them at exact coordinates in my assembly but unfortunately, when I revert back to the drawing and update it, all of the dress up dimensions go haywire.
If I deactivate the translation in the part model, the drawing updates with no problems but then the assembly is off.
I would lock the view in the drawing, but we are regularly making slight adjustments to these parts and locking the view prevents any changes to be updated.
Is there any way to update everything other than the translation??

Rename this folder and restart Catia. If you are running LUM it will ask for your license again. You can pick it from the list or just copy the Licensing.CATSettings file from the renamed folder to the new CATSettings folder.
Side note. You should have a CATSettings folder for each version
What version are you using?

Got ahold of our support company and apparently our license doesn't have the right add-ons for this.
Is there, by any chance, another way to keep the part translation separate in case I am unable to acquire the add-on?
