Compare NX7 Files

Compare NX7 Files

(OP)
Is there a way to compare 2 NX7 files with the differences in another color?  

RE: Compare NX7 Files

Search the term 'model compare' in the help files. I have only used it a few times, but I think it is what you are after.

In NX6 you can find the function on the 'Analysis' menu.

RE: Compare NX7 Files

i have used model compare quite a few times, it highlights the faces that have been changed, so its not quite highlighting the differences.. so if you had a face with a hole in and in the other model the same face without, it would higlight the face and hole not just the hole.

What i find i cant do is compare two models constructed in different axis. So if two people have constructed the same model but person a has started on the xy and person b the zx plane it wont compare.
