List of environment variables
List of environment variables
(OP)
Does anyone out there have a full list of environment variables for UG and their function? We are currently using NX3 & NX5. examples of these are NX_FORCE_CSD=1 (forces delete,transform,object display..etc to go right into class select). I am just curious of other variables that could have some positive uses.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.





RE: List of environment variables
Here are some that I use
UGII_DRAFT_EXPRESSIONS_OK set this to 1 to have access to expressions while in drafting.
UGII_MONIKER = 1 When set to 1 makes Solid Edge file associative to NX. When the Solid Edge file is updated the "linked" body can be updated in NX.
UGII_ENABLE_CUTTER_SPIN = 1 makes the tool spin while in the tool path verify. Looks cool but can slow things down.

RE: List of environment variables
The official ones are either contained the file titled 'ugii_env.dat' found in the UGII folder or can be found in the user Documentation or the release notes. The 'unofficial' ones are more of a folklore issue. Occasionally we will publish them, usually for some temporary situation, or else for some purely legacy support issue, which could still turn out to be temporary (although we tend to not make these temporary enough).
Anyway, if anyone wants to volunteer them, that's fine, but don't expect a documented list to be forthcoming because it's not a priority or even a desired situation.
