9. CMM options – I-deas

CMM options – I-deas This chapter describes the CMM options for migrating I-deas data to NX. You can modify the migration process with the configuration options, such as whether to migrate 3D annotations and whether to migrate associated drawings. At a minimum, you need to verify the following options prior to migration:

• Report location (Application, Migration Controls)
• Scratch Location (Application, Migration Controls) You should also specify the following:
• Always import the part's boundary representation (B-Rep) geometry, or just when there are errors migrating features (set in Content Migration, Geometry). If parts are being migrated that do not need to be modified, you can improve the performance of the migration process and create smaller files by migrating the boundary representation, but not the feature history. This would be applicable, for example, if there are released parts and standard parts that will only be used for display in assemblies, but not modified.
