new line and curves since Nx3
new line and curves since Nx3
(OP)
the good old versions, an annoyance...
Since Nx3 we have got new lines and arc funktions.
I use to work on the wcs plane. With the old line the Z height is everytime zero.With the new line functions the z height is for example 0.0017 on one line end , on the other -0.00013.
.... what a mess

RE: new line and curves since Nx3
As I sayed before, im working in the wcs plane the snap point are all turned off, in this case IMHO all screen point should be zero in Z - (xy) plane. This must work even when I turn the workplane with pointsnap. In the old line menues everything works fine. Is it a bug? Nx3 3.02.3Mp14

RE: new line and curves since Nx3
However, if you use the "Lines and Arcs Toolbar" you are not given any options and unless the points you select are actual objects off the plane of the WCS it will always stay on the WCS. Creating Lines and Arcs from the full dialogs, using the Insert/Curves/... route provides more flexibility, but also requires you to a little more careful if you're not in the exact mode that you wish to be in.

RE: new line and curves since Nx3
problem is since V18 the boss never spend money on update /education for NX - we must learn it by doing.
But how can I lock the plane permanent on for example on xy plane. Every time when I start this line function I have to redefine the plane.
