detail view NX6
detail view NX6
(OP)
In NX6 when using NX Sheetmetal and creating a flat pattern, if you try to create a detail view from the flattern view in drafting, nothing shows up in the detail view. Any other view on the drawing, no problem creating a detail view. The only thing I can come up with right now to tell the users here is to bring in another flat pattern view and change the boundary and manually create a detail view.

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

However, even if you DID go to NX 7.0, you would still NOT get this fix since you stated that GTAC indicated that it would be fixed in NX 7.5. Note that NX 7.5 is a totally different release than is NX 7.0.

On the other hand from time to time you'll find that the system does support features and methods that relate most heavily to supporting legacy data properly. Their continued existence also continues to offer ways to work which newer users in their relative ignorance fail to appreciate. You may see occasional discussions on the forum about the use of layers for which many newcomers to NX have little use or understanding. Some would like to get rid of them altogether. You on the other hand may be about to find out why that could be a really bad idea.

Are you sure that this response was intended for this thread?
The issue here was not how to control the visibility of objects in a Drawing but rather a problem with creating a Detailed View from a Sheet Metal part's 'Flat Pattern'.
