Display properties |
This option is used to enable/disable the import of colors of model objects. |
|
Create component files |
The state of the option affects the process of creating components when importing an assembly model: •If the option is enabled, the components are written to separate files and are independent models, •If the option is disabled, the components are stored inside the assembly as local models. |
|
CMP Parameters |
This option allows you to enable/disable the import of CMP parameters such as density and mass. |
|
Knit surfaces |
This option is used to knit surfaces. If this setting is enabled, the system will try to merge the imported surfaces. As a result, you can get a larger surface or solid (if the source surface is closed). If this setting is disabled, the knitting won’t be applied, and the imported surfaces would be similar to the original ones. Please note that the Knit surfaces setting only affects surfaces and do not affect bodies. |
|
Knitting Precision |
Field to enter the value of the maximum distance between the edges of knitted surfaces. The range of valid values is 0–1000 mm. The field is available when the option is enabled Knit surfaces. |
|
Group Objects |
This group of options is used to manage the import of model objects. When this option is enabled, objects of the corresponding type are imported into the model. The group contains the following options: •Solids, •Surfaces, •Curves, •Layout elements — dimensions, designations, captions, and tables are imported, •Technical notes — text objects are imported. |
|
When importing JT file, the attributes recorded in them are read. Predefined atributesSourseID, SourseName, SourseDescription, SourseAuthor, SourseOrganization, SourseMass, and SourseDensity are converted into properties Designation, Name, Comment, Author, Organization, Mass, and Density, respectively, while the remaining attributes become user properties automatically created in the model. When necessary, you can configure the mapping of attributes and properties of KOMPAS-3D document.

Table of attributes and properties mapping |
In the table, the mapping of the attributes of the imported document and the properties of the KOMPAS-3D document is configured. The No. column contains ordinal numbers of mappings. In column JT, attributes are listed, and in column KOMPAS — properties. Pairs of predefined attributes and their corresponding properties are always present in the table. To the right of the table there are buttons that control its content. |
|
|
Save to file |
This button allows you to save the mapping table to a file. After saving the file, its full name will appear in the File field. |

Read from file |
This button displays in the table those attributes from an imported document, that are not pre-defined. If an imported document has such attributes, their names are added to the table when you press this button. Cells in the KOMPAS column for them are empty. Attribute cells are editable, and property cells contain a dropdown list, where you can specify a property of your choice. The line Settings... in the list allows you to select a property from the library. |
