Mapping component ids with PathFinder


Component IDs or instance names are unique identifiers in 2D applications, such as QY CAD Wiring Design. Previously, when this wiring data was imported into Solid Edge, there was no way to display these component ids in QY CAD PathFinder.

You can now use the Update with Electrical Component IDs option to map the electrical component id to the name in PathFinder. When you select Update with Electrical Component IDs, you have the option to replace or append the component id in QY CAD PathFinder.

Also, with the addition of the Update with Electrical Component IDs option, you no longer have to manually assign the occurrence for duplicate component ids.
