||||
| The extension of a Feature Dictionary and Business Process Knowledge Template file. A .CATfct file contains the technological objects and behaviors. | ||||
| .CATScript | The extension of a macro file generated by CATIA Version 5. | |||
A

||||
| A property which defines whether a relation is applied to a document or not. The activity value is either true or false. It is indicated by an icon in the specification tree and can also be read in the document parameter list. | ||||
| ActiveX URL Behavior | A behavior designed to open a HTML page that can interoperate with CATIA V5 using VB Script. | |||
| Add Type Behavior | A behavior designed to associate technology with an object. | |||
B
|
||||
| behavior | A set of tasks performed on a technological object. | |||
| Bind Product Instance Behavior | A behavior designed to search for a product instance. | |||
| Bind Publication Behavior | A behavior designed to retrieve a publication. | |||
| Bind PowerCopy Behavior |
|
|||
| Bind User Feature Behavior | A behavior is designed to retrieve a UDF from a document by specifying the name of this UDF as well as the document or a feature contained in the document. | |||
| Bind Part Behavior | A behavior is designed to retrieve a part from a CATPart Document by specifying the document or a feature contained in this document. | |||
| Bind Object | A behavior that searches for a specified object. | |||
| Bind Behaviors | A set of behaviors enabling the user to access resources not yet available at the definition stage. | |||
| Bind Parameter Behavior | A behavior that searches for a specified parameter. | |||
| Bind Reference Behavior | A behavior that searches for the reference whose name or path is specified. | |||
| Bind Instance Behavior | A behavior that searches for the instance of a specified object. | |||
| Bind Type Behavior | A behavior searches for the type whose name or path is specified. | |||
C
|
||||
| check | A set of statements intended to provide the user with a clue as to whether certain conditions are fulfilled or not. A check does not modify the document it is applied to. A check is a feature. In the document specification tree, it is displayed as a relation that can be activated and deactivated. Like any feature, a check can be manipulated from its contextual menu. | |||
| Command Behavior | A behavior designed to specify the execution parameters of a CAA Command.. | |||
| Create New From Behavior | A behavior designed to perform a New from command. | |||
| Copy/Paste Behavior | A behavior designed to copy a feature and to paste it into a document. | |||
| Create External Reference Behavior | A behavior designed to create an external reference in a part by specifying a geometrical feature. | |||
D
|
||||
| Display In Window Behavior | A behavior designed to highlight or to display an object. | |||
| dictionary | The set of parameters, operators, keywords, functions and other components that make up the language to be used to write formulas, rules and checks. The formula, rule and check editors provide you with an interactive view of the dictionary. | |||
F
|
||||
| Filter Catalog Behavior | A behavior that enables the user to open a catalog containing features by using a catalog. | |||
I
|
||||
| Instantiate Template Behavior | A behavior that enables the user to specify the instantiation of a Power Copy, or a UDF. | |||
| Insert Components Behavior | A behavior designed to insert a new component into a product. | |||
| Implementation Behaviors | A set of behaviors that enables the user to reuse existing components like CAA commands, VB Scripts, URLs, and executable files. | |||
| Information Behavior | A behavior designed to enable the user to specify a message that will be displayed when a given event occurs. | |||
K
|
||||
| knowledgeware | The set of software components dedicated to the creation and manipulation of knowledge-based information. Knowledge-based information consists of rules and other types of relations whereby designers can save their corporate know-how and reuse it later on to drive their design processes. | |||
| Knowledge Relations Behavior | A behavior designed to enable the user to specify a Knowledge Advisor relation (Rule or Check). | |||
L
|
||||
| Link Parameters Behavior | A behavior designed to link two behaviors of one of the extended objects. | |||
| Load Document Behavior | A behavior designed to load a document by specifying the name of this document. | |||
| Logical Combination Behavior | A combination of behaviors enabling the user to work with the aggregation concept. | |||
O
|
||||
| On Cancel Behavior | A behavior designed to track the failure of another behavior known as the Father Object. | |||
| On Create Behavior | A behavior designed to track the creation of another behavior known as the Father Object. | |||
| On Done Behavior | A behavior designed to track the completion of the execution of another behavior or the update of a feature. | |||
| On Remove Behavior | A behavior designed to track the deletion of another behavior known as the Father Object. | |||
P
|
||||
| parameter | A feature defining a document property. | |||
| Propagate Execution Behavior | A behavior designed to launch the execution of a given object. | |||
R
|
||||
| relation | A knowledgeware feature which, depending on
certain conditions:
Knowledgeware relations are formulas, checks, rules and design tables. |
|||
| rule | A set of instructions, generally based on conditional statements, whereby the relationship between parameters is controlled. In addition, depending on the context described by the rule instructions, CATIA macros can be executed and messages can be displayed. A rule is a feature. In the document specification tree, it is displayed as a relation that can be activated or deactivated. Like any feature, a rule can be manipulated from its contextual menu. | |||
S
|
||||
| Sequential Combination Behavior | A combination of behaviors designed to execute in a sequential order. | |||
| Synchronize Parameters Behavior | A behavior designed to synchronize two behaviors of the extended objects. | |||
| System Behavior | A behavior designed to launch an executable file. | |||
T
|
||||
| Technological Object | An object used in the Business Process
Knowledge Template workbench. A technological object is made up of three sets of components:
|
|||
U
|
||||
| URL Behavior | A behavior designed to open a HTML page. | |||
V
