Import options specified in the Import tab are passed to the
*feinputwithdata2 command as a string array. The easiest way to produce
this array is to import a file using the desired options, and then to examine the created
string array in the resulting command file. The following strings can be used in the
array:
- "CADIO_AVOID_EDGES_MERGING": By default edges are merged together when possible at import time as part of the cleanup phase. If this string is added to the array, the original breakdown of edges is preserved.
- "CADIO_SPLIT_COMPONENTS_BY_BODY": By default, bodies will be organized in HyperMesh according to the original CAD file structure. If this string is added to the array, each body from the original CAD file will be placed into a different HyperMesh component. This is available forCATIA, Parasolid, ProE and STEP formats.
- "CADIO_IMPORT_COMPOSITE_DATA": If this string is added to the array, CATIA Composites Parts Design (CPD) data can be read. This is available for CATIA only.
- "CADIO_IMPORT_COMPOSITE_DATA_OFF": If this string is added to the array, CATIA Composites Parts Design (CPD) data is not read. This is available for CATIA only.
- "CADIO_IMPORT_HIDDEN_PLY_SURFACES": If this string is added to the array, CATIA Composites Parts Design (CPD) hidden ply surfaces can be read. This is available for CATIA only.
- "CADIO_IMPORT_HIDDEN_PLY_SURFACES_OFF": If this string is added to the array, CATIA Composites Parts Design (CPD) hidden ply surfaces are not read. This is available for CATIA only.
- "CADIO_TRIM_PLY_SURFACES": If this string is added to the array, CATIA Composites Parts Design (CPD) ply surfaces are trimmed during import. This is available for CATIA only.
- "CADIO_TRIM_PLY_SURFACES_OFF": If this string is added to the array, CATIA Composites Parts Design (CPD) ply surfaces are not trimmed during import. This is available for CATIA only.
- "CADIO_PLY_GROUP_AS_LAMINATE": If this string is added to the array, CATIA Composites Parts Design (CPD) ply groups are created as laminates. This is available for CATIA only.
- "CADIO_PLY_GROUP_AS_LAMINATE_OFF": If this string is added to the array, CATIA Composites Parts Design (CPD) ply groups are not created as laminates. This is available for CATIA only.
- "CADIO_PLY_CONTOUR_GAP_TOLERANCE <value>": If this string is added to the array, <value> specifies the ply contour gap tolerance to use for CATIA Composites Parts Design (CPD). This is available for CATIA only.
