This applies to the Product tab of the part properties. Example: This is what appears in the Product tab before filtering:
If you do not select Keep part properties, all information is lost:
If you select the Keep part properties, you will transfer the product information. Only the Part Number will change:
This option overrides the standard behavior for colors and attributes and keeps the visual aspect of the original data. For example, the color of one face has been changed: If you do not select Keep colors and attributes on subelements, the whole solid takes the color of the original body, as explained in the standard behavior. If you select Keep colors and attributes on subelements, the color you have applied to the face is kept:
2D Layout for 3D Design data can be processed only if they are visualized in the 3D Viewer.
In the case of a global transfer (all options are selected), 2D Layout for 3D Design data will be reconnected to the elements that were pointed, with the exception of 2D profiles generated from 2D geometry of 2D Layout for 3D Design views that are no longer linked to filtered geometry. In particular, 2D Layout for 3D Design filters will be transferred and filtered objects will be correctly managed in destination document. No difference will be visible on resulting 2D Layout for 3D Design visualization.
In the case of a partial transfer (some options are not selected), 2D Layout for 3D Design data will be totally transferred, but some 2D Layout for 3D Design objects will point to non transferred objects (e.g. non transferred annotations cannot be pointed by transferred 2D layout filters).
All objects (sheets, views, 2D component references and 2D component instances, 2D geometries, annotations, layout filters etc) will be transferred and visible but in some cases objects will be isolated (e.g. annotations that cannot be rerouted on a translated object). Non translated objects will be removed from transferred filters.
As 3D data and 2D data are transferred in separate steps, profiles in 3D generated from 2D geometry in 2D Layout for 3D Design will be isolated from their 2D geometry in 2D layout after filtering.
All texts are isolated (no more attribute links). In particular, texts under views with scale factor will lose that scale factor.
Annotations can be processed only if they are visualized in the 3D Viewer.
Select this option to transfer annotations. You will find below explanations on what happens.
When Keep annotations is selected, the 3D Functional Tolerancing & Annotation data are all transferred even if they are not displayed:
The transferred 3D Functional Tolerancing & Annotation features are displayed in the feature tree with the same names as in the origin documents and in the exact same order. The names of the Geometrical Links features of the transferred 3D Functional Tolerancing & Annotation features are partially kept:
The old construction geometry features (created before V5R13 and displayed under an OpenBody for 3D Annotations node) are special GSD features. These features are not fully transferred. They are transferred as datums as any other GSD feature but are no longer editable in the filtered documents. All the 3D Functional Tolerancing & Annotation features that are applied to them in the origin documents are transferred and applied to the corresponding datum geometry in the filtered documents.
The new construction geometry features (displayed under the Construction geometries node of the Annotation Set in the feature tree) are fully transferred and can be edited in the filtered documents.
Thread construction geometry features are linked to Part Design threaded hole features or thread features or their corresponding Technological Result thread features. The threaded hole features or thread features are not transferred but the corresponding Technological Result thread features are.
The transferred thread construction geometry features are invalid and all the annotations that are linked to them are invalid.
If the Technological Result thread features have not been generated, the transferred thread construction geometry features are invalid and all the annotations that are linked to them are invalid.
If the Technological Result thread features have been generated, the transferred thread construction geometry features are valid. They are linked to the Technological Result thread features (even if they were linked to the threaded hole feature or the thread feature). All the annotations that are linked to them are valid too.
Note that:
All the parameters of the 3D Functional Tolerancing & Annotation features are transferred. All the formulas on these parameters are not transferred but the value of the 3D Functional Tolerancing & Annotation parameters are kept. The attributes links of 3D Functional Tolerancing & Annotation text features are not transferred but the content of the text is fully kept.
3D Functional Tolerancing & Annotation parameters of origin document: 3D Functional Tolerancing & Annotation parameters of filtered document:
The links to Generative Parameters are not kept.
Tabulated geometrical tolerances that are based on the existence of length parameters having the names of the tabulated tolerances displayed in the callout are transferred but are invalid in the filtered documents because the corresponding length parameters are not transferred.
The result on screen of the display of a transferred capture is the same as the result on screen of the display of the origin capture, except for the following cases:
All the cameras that are linked to 3D Functional Tolerancing & Annotation captures are transferred. The cameras that are not linked to 3D Functional Tolerancing & Annotation captures are not transferred.
Instances of Note Object Attribute From a Ditto are transferred by removing the link (if any) to the document that contains the reference Note Object Attribute. The instances of Note Object Attribute From a Ditto in the filtered documents are linked to the CATDrawing documents that contain the corresponding detail.
When there is no datum geometry that corresponds to the origin geometry (this is the case only when the geometry in the origin documents is in no-show – except for the XY, YZ, ZX planes that always exist in the filtered documents), the 3D Functional Tolerancing & Annotation features behave as follows:
If the option Keep selection sets is selected, the 3D Functional Tolerancing & Annotation features belonging to selection sets will be kept in the selection sets of the transferred documents.

Select this option to transfer layers definition (layer name and definition) and filters definition (filter name and definition).
