Please use 'zip' when you wish to compress a file.

berri hi,

you can open a new part file and goto manufacture

   select

create tool and under tooltype select browse and select your file
after this whenever you want to select a new tool under tooltype you'll have your tools

Hi Marina,

Thanks for you point of view.

I add you some photos, the thing is that I can open de .PRT archive,but I can't open as a template.

I upload some photos, sorry but my NX is in Spanish.

The thing is that I want to load the .PRT archive as a template that is in a customized palette. But when I try to load it, error happens.

If I can't I load the archive as a .PRT and that is all.

Thanks.

berri,

i tried to load the file as template (as its shown in the pictures) and works fine.

i will try to upload a video later.

can you translate the error message in english?  

RE: how can I load this .prt as a template

Marina,

The translation of the error message is,

the template format is unknown.

It works with the option open directly the .PRT archive.

but it dosen't work, if I want to load as a template.

thanks.

 

RE: how can I load this .prt as a template

I am not sure what you mean by "load as template" but here are some guesses based on your part and pictures:

You can use the part as a template in the create tool dialog by browsing for it.

If you want to use a palette, the part must be a setup template in the setup library. If you use cam_library configuration, do you see the template in the tree list? If so, then you can add the library class as a palette.

Hi Mark,

The thing is that, I want to use a palette. But I don't know how to setup the archive,or the future template.

thanks.
