Hi Everyone,

After creating material orientations in the ODB using ODB API, you must have noticed that the localCsys member of the materiaOrientation object is corrupted. It shows a blank name and UNKNOWN type even though the datum coordinate system is available in the rootAssembly object.

The problem may arise if the material orientation object created using assignMaterialOrientation() points to a DatumCsys object which is created at the assembly level. The user should create the Datum Csys object at the instance level since the material orientation object is available in the instance level

However, the datumCsyses repository is not available at the instance level and so the datum CS cannot be retrieved from either assembly or instance level.

Thanks
