Q-Checker 2.4.0 for

CATIA V6 / 3DExperience

What’s new

This “What’s new” describes

some major changes:

- New criteria

- New or improved features

- Fixed issues

New criteria

New criterion: "Capture Display"

• EH17896

• This criterion checks whether the visibility of bodies is managed by captures. In particular, the following is checked:

• Check the parameter “Manage the visibility of part instances, bodies and geometrical sets” in the capture definition

• If visibility management by captures is allowed: Check the assignment of bodies to certain captures. Captures are rated as faulty if they do not manage the visibility of the specified elements.

• This criterion requires CATIA 3DEXPERIENCE R2015x or later.

New criterion:

"Sketch element used in multiple output profiles"

• EH17588

• This criterion checks whether the

same sketch elements are used in

multiple profile features of solids.

Sketch elements used in multiple

profile features are marked as faulty.

New criterion: "FT/A View Definition"

• EH17696

• This criterion checks whether the

definition of an FT/A view is isolated

or has an associative support

element.

New criterion: "Draft Definition"

• EH17904

• This criterion checks whether the

pulling direction for a draft uses the

required Controlled by

reference setting.

General enhancements

Model name in Q-Checker

• EH17947

• Each checked model gets a model name to handle by Q-Checker.

This model name is now customizable.

Additional timing information in QC DB Report

• EH17728

• Set keyword qchecker.DB_WRITE_MEASURE_TIMES in

QCHECKER.db to include check timing information in the

database report

Process Q-Checker result elements in subsequent criteria

• EH17758

• Keyword RESULT_ELEMENT gets the

elements that violate a certain criterion

in the current check run

• Available in criterion Conditional

Feature Properties

and in check conditions. Examples:

# CONDITIONAL FEATURE PROPERTIES# Check color of elements that violate # another criterion

BEGIN_BLOCKIF ( RESULT_ELEMENT( 93258522 ) )THEN( COLOR = 255,0,0 )ERROR_MSG"Error: Color of failed element is not RED"END_BLOCK

# CHECK CONDITION# Process criterion if other criterion# has been violated by 3 or more elements

IF( RESULT_ELEMENT( 80163996 ) )AMOUNT 3-

Criterion: "Conditional Feature Properties"

• EH17758

• The keyword

"COMPONENT_ATTRIBUTE" reads

all kind of attributes and it is possible

to choose between instance and

reference attributes.

Criterion: "FT/A Types Must Be Assigned to Specific

Captures"

• EH17432

• New healing button has been added:

"Assign this entity to specific capture,

if necessary create requested

capture and set this camera:"

Criterion: "Existence and content of texts"

• EH17689

• New healing button has been added: "Do not heal text features with links

to parameters".

Fixed issues

Fixed issues

Fixed issue PMC EH

Criterion: "Embedded Drawing Element [G-DW-EM]"

Elements of type "DrwDressUpCenterLine" caused a general error.

TCA-040852 16289_SF

Criterion: "Unused Supports"

Criterion did not handle 3DParts as supports.

TCA-040895, 17887_SF,

Product Component Selection

Access: "*All in Session" has been removed.

--- 17741_SF

Fixed issues

Fixed issue PMC EH

Criterion: "Existence and Text Content of Parameters"

The check result of a specific model was different in interactive and

batch mode.

--- 17654_SF

Criterion: "Unresolved Feature“

All publications have been considered as unresolved.

TCA-040780 17657_SF

Criterion: "Non-Standard Display Accuracy of Dimension [D-OR-DI]"

been selected.

--- 17483_SF

Fixed issues

Fixed issue PMC EH

Criterion: "Structure of Part Specification Tree"

Successful healing with the option "Create missing bodies“ did not

change the healing status.

--- 17487_SF

Criterion: "Non-Allowed Infinite Lines"

CAA API threw an exception and that caused an abort.

TCA-040841 17775_SF

Criterion: "No Space Geometry Outside Working Area [O-CM-OB]"
