When you apply
material to a part or body in SOLIDWORKS, the same material assignment and tree order
structure is replicated in the 3DEXPERIENCE
platform.
Benefits:
You can maintain the same design structure for structures that involve multibody
parts.
In the earlier releases, when material was applied at
part level or body level, the material definition was lost while saving it to the
3DEXPERIENCE platform. Now when you apply material to a SOLIDWORKS part and
save it to the
3DEXPERIENCE platform, material exposition is managed in any of
the following ways:
- Material applied at the part level is applied at the 3DPart level in the
3DEXPERIENCE platform.
- Material applied at the body level is applied at the body level in the
3DEXPERIENCE platform.
- Material applied at the part and body level is applied at the 3DPart and
body level in the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. For multibody structure, if
material is applied at part level and some bodies, the material definition was
applied to the bodies that did not have material definition. But now the bodies
that do not have any material definition, do not display any material
definition.
