HD78004: V4-V5,THE CHAMFER FIGURATION IS DIFFERENT

APAR status

• Closed as suggestion for future release.

Error description

• V4-V5,The Chamfer figuration is different
  SCENARIO:
  1. Launch CATIA V5.
  2. File/Open the model the provided model
  3. RMB on *Master and select Copy
  4. Select File/New(PART)
  5. Part1 is chosen and MB3
  6. Paste Special / CATIA SPEC
  RESULT:
  Error message "Update Error for CHAM3, Chamfer.4
  (CHAM3) : [Sick Features : None. Message :
  Ribbon Computation : Impossible Relimitation"
  occurs. The shape of the chamfer is not correct
  after migration. One chamfer feature in V4 is
  migrated as 4 chamfer features in V5
  EXPECTED RESULT:
  1. One chamfer feature in V4 should be migrated
  as one chamfer feature in V5.
  2. The shape of the chamfer should be correct after
  migration

  INCIDENT DIAGNOSIS
  One V4 chamfer does not give one V5 chamfer but
  multiple chamfers.
  .
  DEVELOPMENT REQUEST JUSTIFICATION
  The specs of V4 chamfer are different from the V5
  chamfer.  The V4V5 conversion takes each V4
  edge, with its own chamfer parameters, and
  creates one V5 chamfer on each V4 edge. Such V5
  chamfer are "independant" features and, as a
  consequence, for the IR, are not trimmed between
  themselves. New development is required to group
  the V4 edges which have the same chamfer
  parameters into a unique V5 chamfer. Then, this
  V5 chamfer featurewill be able to trim / relimit its
  internal surfaces and so on.
  In the model with this APAR, the V4 chamfer is
  made of 4  V4 edges with the same chamfer
  parameters : because they have the same
  parameters they can all be "grouped" into a unique
  V5 chamfer (with a unique parameter set, applied
  to all V5 chamfer edges). But this "grouping
  analysis" of V4 edges according to their own
  chamfer parameters needs new code development.
  This is why the APAR has been closed as SUG.
  However, if a V4 chamfer is made of 5 edges with
  5 different parameter sets, it will be impossible to
  group them in an unique V5 chamfer, and there will
  still be 5 V5 Chamfers.
  This will be made available in R19 and V6R2010. NOT
  IN R18.
