Retrieving SolidWorks Custom Properties in 3DVIA

Under 3DVIA (V6R demo version), I can't get the custom properties of the part files from Solidworks.

In each of the parts in 3DVIA, I have the properties of the highest level assembly and not of each of the parts.

What's the trick?

In your assembly, under SW, if you open one of the subassemblies, what is checked in "BOM options", in the configuration properties?

If it's checked "Hide", it seems normal behavior.

I checked, I checked "Show".

Can this short 3 min tutorial help you?

Thank you @lucas for the video.

I took a look but I still have the same problem
(see attached view).

 

FYI: when importing assembly into 3DVIA,  I checked Import meta properties.

Two posts that talk about it just in case:

After several tests:

It works if there are one or two levels of sub-assembly, but beyond that it doesn't work anymore.

I have the impression that it's a "BUG"!!!!

I brought the solution to this post http://www.lynkoa.com/forum/3d/meta-proprietes-de-solidwoks-composer it's a problem with the configuration of SolidWorks or SolidWorks importer/translator
