NX5 View Border in drafting?
(OP)
Hi Everyone
Can someone please help me with switching on and off the view borders in drafting? I am working on NX5.0.1.4
I don't see the drafting preferences option anymore.

Thanks for the reply.
I managed to find it by switching back to a 'Last release role'.
For some reason the drafting under the preferences tab was missing. Is this a bug?
RE: NX5 View Border in drafting?
It's probably due to the Role you're using. Try switching to an Advanced role with Full Menus.

RE: NX5 View Border in drafting?
I have tried the Advanced role with full menus, it still is not there. This only started after I had updated to the latest maintenance release NX5.0.1.4.
I'm back on me old release and it's there.
RE: NX5 View Border in drafting?
If you MB3 over a toolbar and select Customize from the pulldown, the Customize dialog will appear. Click on the Options tab and see if Always Show Full Menus is checked. If that doesn't work, click the Reset Folded Menus button and see what happens.
An update should never remove a command from a pulldown unless it's documented in the Release Notes or just flat out a major bug.
I would also think that if you keep using this previous Role, you might miss out on other items that will appear in the menus with newer NX5 updates. That's just a guess though.
