Ghost parts left behind
Ghost parts left behind
(OP)
Has anyone else experienced ghost parts left behind when switching arrangements.
Our N/C group keeps having clamps left behind when switching arrangements. I have placed multiple arrangements within the assembly file to show the clamp locations and locator and the like. Every now and then when they switch they will get a facet body left behind of a clamp or other component that was moved to the new location.
Anyway its driving me nuts trying to figure out why this is happening.
I'm using NX 5.041 mp1 on windows xp on a 64 bit platform with 8gig of ram

RE: Ghost parts left behind
delete the facet reference set in the master parts and let them recreate with a new save

No they are solid I mean ghost in the sense that they remain when they should be gone. I usually tell them to just delete them. They only exist in their file and do not reside in the assembly file where the original component resides. It is as though there is a facet created from the assembly file into their n/c file.

Otherwise try going into Assemblies>Advanced>Representations and deleting all the faceted bodies, just to see whether anything happens as a result.
Lastly maybe it is a graphics thing and just changing views usually clears most of those things up.
