A specific tool named File Based Design Import (FBDI) is dedidcated for this task. It imports in
interactive mode or in batch mode a list of CATProducts/CATpart files. The V5 feature history and
relational links are kept after the import operation. The links between the CATParts are kept after import in V6. Relational design is still possible in V6 and
it’s even simpler than in V5.
Why, after importing V5 CATDrawing linked to Product, the show/hide status of CAT Product is lost in the Drawing views after update. ?
Before using the FDBI go in menu Tools+option, expand General+FDBI nodes, then select the
drafting tab and check the Show/noshow option.
