Hi John,
I have 3 tabs at http://ftp.ugs.com/download.php
- NX/Unigraphics NX
- NX Nastran
- TeamCenter or TeamCenter Express

but nothing for Ugcast

I checked also under the tab NX/Unigraphics.

Did we need a special license for ugcast now ?

Thanks in advance
Didier





 

RE: Patch Openings NX7.5: joggle and notch ?

A simple problem -issue-  I have with patch opening is that after editing a patch opening feature I can not add a new one.
I have to restart the Nx session.

UGCAST has always been an extra cost item.

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

Hi Uwam2ie

I agree with your problem, but it's not necessary to restart NX. I you want to add a new patch opening in the same part, just hide the previous patch opening.

Hi John

1°) Could you explain the above problem ? If not I will open an IR

2°) You said taht "UGCAST has always been an extra cost item", but could you explain why a received the CD UGGAST for NX6 and it works with my license ?

It's not license controlled, but rather it's a 'subscription' that if you have not paid you will not be able to download the latest versions.

RE: Patch Openings NX7.5: joggle and notch ?

I also cant find UGCAST, is this included in the NX-7.5.0-332bit.zip (apr. 2GB) file?

I have acces to the NX tab, where do I find the CAST????

Best regards,

Go to our GTAC support site where you download copies of NX and their updates, in this case go to the 'Full Product Reelases' at (note that you will need your webkey and password to log-on)...

http://ftp.ugs.com/download.php

...and next to the NX/Unigraphics NX 'button' you will see the NX CAST/ Unigraphics CAST 'button'.

RE: Patch Openings NX7.5: joggle and notch ?

Ok, thank you John, but i only see 4 tabs over there, one NX tab and 3 TeamCenter releated tabs. So this means we didn't pay for the CAST or this is not included in the license bundle we currently use at the factory.

Anyway thanks for replying.

Best regards,

Michaël.

It generally means that you don't have a license/subscription for the products not shown.  If you think this is an error, please contact GTAC or your Siemens PLM software release coordinator.
