HD01628: GENERATE DIMENSION DOES NOT GENERATE ALL THE SKETCH DIMENSION

APAR status

• Closed as Permanent restriction.

Error description

• Generate dimension does not generate all the sketch
  dimension
  Step-by-Step scenario to reproduce the problem :
  File / Open 274.CATPart
  Start / Mechanical Design / Drafting
  Select Empty Sheet and Press OK
  Select Front View function
  In the CATPart :
   Double click on TURNING body and select xy plane
  In the Drawing :
   Tools/Options/Mechanical Design/Drafting/Generation
   Flag "Filter Before Generation"
   Press Ok
  Select Generating Dimension function
   Flag "Generate all dimension" and press OK
  -> Only three dimensions are created and all of sketch.1
  .
  I did some test and I think that the prb. is linked to the
  sketch.1 that was created in the PartBody and after used for
  the shaft.2.
  Infact I try to copy the sketch.1 (in the PartBody) and
  after paste it in TURNING body (CATIA creates sketch.14),
  after I used this new sketch (sketch.14) to permorm the
  shaft.2.
  I create now the drawing (only about the TURNING body) and
  the prb. doesn't occured.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• GENERATE DIMENSION DOES NOT GENERATE ALL THE SKETCH DIMENSION
  

Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM IS PERMANENT RESTRICTION IN CATIA
  
  Generated Dimensions are created by asking features like pad,
  shaft... Sketch constraints are treated by the "father feature"
  and not directly by the sketch. In the IR case, The sketch.1
  which is under the feature shaft.1, is also used to create the
  the feature shaft.2.
  But only the first shaft is able to give solutions for
  sketch.1 constraints. If this feature is not represented in the
  drawing view, dimensions from sketch.1 constraints won't be
  created.
  
   BY-PASS:
  To generate all the dimensions, make a view of all the part
  and not of a subpart (a body).
  

Temporary fix
