Checking In 3DXML Files

This section shows you how to check in a 3DXML file.

Once you have modified the 3dxml file that you checked out, you can:


  • check it back in to ENOVIA
  • select File/Save to save the CATProduct to disk
  • select File/Close to perform a checkin later.

If you choose to check in the file later, note that you must open the CATProduct file before performing the checkin procedure. Do not directly open the 3dxml file that was downloaded during checkout. Only 3dxml files that have been checked out from ENOVIA can be checked in as a 3dxml file. If you open a 3dxml file directly from hard disk, into CATIA, and then try to check in the file, it will be checked in as a CATProduct, not as a 3dxml file.

  1. With the 3dxml file open in CATIA (it is opened as a CATProduct), select ENOVIA V6 > Checkin > Active Model.

  2. Select the item to check in and click Checkin.
