Notes for Alias NX (object) entities
(1) An NX point converts to a degree 1 curve composed of two coincident
points. On export to NX, this construction converts back to an NX point.
(2) If the sheet body only points to one face, then Alias converts the face to
a trimmed surface.
(3) This is a one-way mapping. Assemblies cannot be exported.
(4 ) Added as blind data. Can be re-exported.
