Hello all,

Good afternoon, is there a way in CATIA V5 to attach a parameter or a property to a Body and not to a Part? Perhaps via the API?

When we create a property or a parameter it always is attached to the Part.

Thanking you in advance,

Joseph
 
Joseph - create a blank part, create a new parameter. select paramter in the tree, contextual menu - copy, contextual menu over PartBody - paste. Is this what you are looking for? Now you can reorder parameters between Partbody and the orignial location in the tree.

Regards,
Derek
 

Thank you Derek, this is what we were looking for.

Cheers,

Joseph
