Layers and Categories
Layers and Categories
(OP)
6.0.2.8
(Simplifying things) I have a category defining the layers that Datums should be created on :
DATUMS - Layers 30-50
I use 'Layers with Objects' to keep the dialog simple and uncluttered.
Using NX5 and earlier, when I go to Layer Settings and I want to create a Datum, I click the DATUMS category and the available layers (for that category) highlight allowing me to easily select the next unused layer. I choose a layer, make it the Work layer and exit the dialog. So easy.
How do I use the same 'workflow' in NX6 ?
