NXi 6m1

NXi 6m1

(OP)
Does any one have an idea when the m1 release will be availble for NX Ideas 6 ?

RE: NXi 6m1

NXI6 just came out a few weeks ago i think.
Have you ran into bugs?
I have NXI6 installed and can't say there is really any difference from 12m4

RE: NXi 6m1

(OP)
I'm currently on NXI5m3, with no problems, but am planning to go to both NX6 & NXI6 at the same time.

I have always waited for the first m release before moving and just wondered if there was any idea of when 6m1 would be availble  

RE: NXi 6m1

I subscribe to Software Field Bulletins from Siemens (both NX and I-DEAS NX) and I haven't seen anything yet for NXI6m1.

Siemens usually doesn't make announcements for target release dates of bug fixes (maintenance releases), unless you ask a Siemens employee on the bbsnotes boards.  They usually just send out a SFB informing subscribers that the new maintenance release is available for download.

There are I-DEAS only newsgroups available on bbsnotes, which is where I would ask this very question if I was really really wanting to know.  You'll need to create a webkey account in order to access the newsgroups.  If you need further help, post back in this thread and I can try to assist you.

Some people are like slinkies....they don't really have a purpose, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

RE: NXi 6m1

Are there any changes from I-DEAS 12? i mean the user interface changes? if so.. it would be nice if someone would post a screenshot of 6 NX :P

RE: NXi 6m1

There aren't any interface changes as far as i can tell.  I think you already have the one change I have noticed, you can pan and zoom with the mouse in drafting.  i think most of the changes have to do with fixing bugs and making it easier to transition to NX.

If you are looking to migrate from I-DEAS to NX, I can say it looks pretty promising.  I have used the CMM in Native mode (no teamcenter installation, just reads out of the TDM and outputs NX files).  All of what i tried so far has almost been 100% perfect, and what little things that did come up were not an issue.  Also all of was i migrated was parts, assemblies and drawing of pretty prismatic parts.

RE: NXi 6m1

I'm not looking to migrate to NX. I'll use I-DEAS to the day when SIEMENS will stop supporting it. :)
