Direct Sketch Update

Direct Sketch Update

Direct Sketch Update

(OP)
Hello All, I am running NX 7.5 here now and would like to know where I adjust my Direct Sketch Settings so that updates are held until I am done adjusting the sketch?

Thanks!

P.S. Radial Buttons are one of the best things ever. It makes me wonder how the meetings went deciding which commands to put in them...I wonder if some sort of 'command tracker' was involved.

RE: Direct Sketch Update

The best that you can do with a Direct Sketch is to use the 'Delay Evaluation' option (it's a icon on the Direct Sketch toolbar or you can find it under Tool -> Update -> Delay Sketch Evaluation and -> Evaluate Sketch).  However, while you can edit the Sketch paramaeters, the Sketch curves do not actually update until you select the 'Evaluate' button.

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