Problem Description:

Surface finish symbols do not migrate correctly

PS: looks the same as PR1931502 and PR1936453

I'm testing I-DEAS to NX migration for a new customer. They use surface finish symbols a lot in their I-DEAS drawings. In migration from I-DEAS to NX, all surface symbols get default values of "0" for values that were blank in the I-DEAS drawing. This is a regression in CMM/NX8. The same drawing that was migrated with CMM/NX7.5 showed surface symbols that did not have the problem.

After migration with CMM/NX8:

After migration with CMM/NX7.5:

<<<For screenshots, please see original Email, provided in PRDT>>>

The customer wants to have this fixed in CMM/NX8!

(Please see coordinator notepad)
