Symbols are changing when using CMM tool.

Symbols are changing when using CMM tool. Description of problem:

Symbols change during the migration.  CMM take the first symbol and substitutes it to many other symbols when the drawing is migrated.  

How to reproduce the problem:

  1.  Import the attached pacakge file.

  2.  Migrate to NX

  3.  View the drawing in NX and see how the FCS was substitued for many symbols.  For example, look at the main sheet and notice how the FCS replaces the surface finish symmbols.  This is all through the drawing on any symbol that has a Geo_Tol type.

Workaround:

 No workaround.  Everything must be fixed in NX.  Please provide a workaround if there is one.

Platform(s) and version(s) tested on:

CMM 10.0.2 with NX 10.0.2

Data or platform specific:

data

File type:

zip file containing the package file, model file, and asc drawing.

File location: See coordinator notepad

   

Other information:

Importing the asc file into NX has the same result so there is a problem with NX reading these Geo_Tol symbols.  I cannot reproduce this without the customer's data, but the customer has many drawings with this situation. This issue is currently open and under investigation. When the investigation completes, this article will be updated to include all of the pertinent information and conclusions.
