APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• ABSTRACT:
  DMUSPA: When we do "Invert Normal" to section plane, the
  result does not change.
  .
  SCENARIO:
  1. Start CATIA V5R18SP5 & go to Tools / Options / Digital
  Mockup / DMU Space Analysis / DMU Sectioning / Section Planes
  / Normal : X.
  2. Open the file : "TEST.CATProduct". Workbench :"DMU Space
  Analysis".
  3. Click "Sectioning" icon. "Sectioning Definition" dialog box
  is displayed. The "Section Plane" is created on the "yz
  plane". And "Section.1" window is displayed.
  4. Select "Positioning" tab in the "Sectioning Definition".
  Changed into "Positioning" tab.
  5. Select "Invert Normal" in the "Sectioning Definition". The
  "Section Plane" is reversed.
  6. Observe the results in "Section.1" window.
  .
  RESULT:
  The display of the "Section.1" window is not reversed.
  Direction of the "Section.1" window does not follow  change
  of direction of the "Section Plane".
  .
  EXPECTED RESULT:
  Direction of the Section window should follow change of directi
  on of the Section Plane.
  .

Problem summary

• ABSTRACT:
  DMUSPA: When we do "Invert Normal" to section plane,
  the result does not change.
  .
  SCENARIO:
  1. Start CATIA
  V5R18SP5 & go to Tools / Options / Digital Mockup / DMU
  Space Analysis / DMU Sectioning / Section Planes / Normal :
  X.
  2. Open the file : "TEST.CATProduct". Workbench :"DMU Space
  Analysis".
  3. Click "Sectioning" icon. "Sectioning Definition"
  dialog box is displayed. The "Section Plane" is created on the
  "yz plane". And "Section.1" window is displayed.
  4. Select
  "Positioning" tab in the "Sectioning Definition". Changed into
  "Positioning" tab.
  5. Select "Invert Normal" in the
  "Sectioning Definition". The "Section Plane" is reversed.
  6.
  Observe the results in "Section.1" window.
  .
  RESULT:
  The
  display of the "Section.1" window is not reversed. Direction
  of the "Section.1" window does not follow  change of direction
  of the "Section Plane".
  .
  EXPECTED RESULT:
  Direction of the
  Section window should follow change of direction of the
  Section Plane.
  

Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM WILL BE FIXED ON   VERSION V5R20 GA
  level.
  Additional Closure Information:
  Incident
  Diagnosis:
  When we do "Invert Normal" to section plane, the
  result does not change.
  Correction Explanations:
  On doing
  invert normal, only the plane axes were getting updated in 3D
  viewer & not the section 2D Viewer. Now this behavior is
  corrected.
  

Temporary fix
