I am unable to see the metadata or PDM attributes in part browser such as thickness, material etc, when I import CAD in hypermesh.
I tried with changing options while CAD import, also sync metadata option in part browser. still the data is missing.

i want to use batch meshing or representation method for preprocessing.
This metadata can help me for property creation.

    Hello @Pruthviraj_Katkar_1 ,

    may I ask you which version of HyperMesh you are using, and the geometry format you are trying to import?

    Best Regards,

    Michael

    hello again,

    As you just created a support case, it will be easier for me to investigate and to ask you for a model. Once investigation is completed, I will post a comment to this discussion so that it can help other users

    Best Regards,

    Michael

    hello,

    as a follow-up of our discussion in the support request:

    • it seems Inventor requires an add-on to export metadata in aim format
    • alternate formats such as jt must be explored

    Best Regards,

    Michael
