NX5 Spellchecker journal

NX5 Spellchecker journal

NX5 Spellchecker journal

(OP)
There are assorted files and a readme in the folder where NX is installed to give you more information. Mine is in ...ugs050\UGOPEN\SampleNXOpenApplications\.NET\SpellChecker

It looks pretty promising. Has anyone set this up? If so, does it work as expected? I assume you have to add all the symbol codes (<O>, etc.) to the Microsoft Word Object Library. Does it work with Teamcenter drawings?
 

RE: NX5 Spellchecker journal

It does look promising but a little tip.

When I need a long set notes on a drawing I write them in WORD, do the spell check, save the file as a text only file, and then import into UG.
Sometimes I will need to remove the line breaks and set "wrap" to off in the text file so that is imported nicer.

If spellchecker does exist in UG then I really would not see why it would not work in a Teamcenter file.

Note that you should also be able to 'Cut & Paste' directly from Word into the NX Annotation Text Editor entry window.

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

I guess either way I would have to add all the drafting and user defined symbol code to the Word spell check library. And I could create Word toolbars to insert the codes with the click of a button so I wouldn't have to type it each time. Nah! It's a good thing I can spell. It's the typing that trips me up. Ha!

Thanks for your input.
