Opening NX parts in ANSA

Does anyone have experience with ANSA's NX translator? I'm trying to figure out how data and attributes are recognized in ANSA.

I think ANSA translates what ever was visible when the NX part was saved. If a midsurface was saved on layer 10, then layer 10 needs to be visible when the part is saved if you expect to see it in ANSA.

I noticed ANSA was able to open assemblies too. I created a "midsurface" reference set in each part so that I could save my assembly with it visible. I'm stating this because I'm wondering if there's a better method.

Also, I would like to have my material thickness attribute be recognized but have been unable to figure this out so far.
