UF_OBJ_set_name case insensitive?

UF_OBJ_set_name case insensitive?

UF_OBJ_set_name case insensitive?

(OP)
Hello all
could anyone tell me is there a function in UF to set the primitive entity's name in CASE-SENSITIVE manner? I tried UF_OBJ_set_name, it sets the name as ALL CAPITAL letters.

Many thanks!

RE: UF_OBJ_set_name case insensitive?

Custom names of objects get conveted to upper case whether set in interactive NX or through NXOpen, so I doubt there is a way to make them case sensitive.

The trend in NX is to avoid the use of case-sensitive names. This was not always true, but in recent years we have moved it that direction.

thank you for the reply. Although the case-sensitive names still can be useful at some applications, especially when it is interfacing with other third part software.
