CMM: CMM is not migrating constraints or dimensions in sketches

CMM: CMM is not migrating constraints or dimensions in sketches Description of problem:

CMM is not migrating the sketch and dimensions of features when using feature history

How to reproduce the problem:

  1. Open the attached package file in CMMSolo. It contains a part with a couple of extrudes. Each of these extrudes has a constrained sketch with dimensions and constraints.

  2. Migrate to NX with feature history

  3. View the resulting file in NX and pick one of the sketches to edit. You can see that the dimensions are no longer there for the sketch.

The problem appears in CMM 1847 and 1872. This is not an issue in CMM 12.0.2.

Workaround:

Use CMM 12.0.2 or add dimensions back when need to modify the sketch in NX.

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

Windows

Data or platform specific:

no

File type:

zip file containing a package file and the CMMscratch directory from my migration

File location: See coordinator notepad

Other information:

Files are all internal as I created the simple example
