Cant get part to convert.
Cant get part to convert.
(OP)
Hi. I am working on a dowel part family in NX3 (to bring in to my NX6 library). I am trying to convert it from inches to mm via the external unit conversion program. For some reason it is failing to convert and not telling me why. I checked all my expressions and can't seem to find the problem. any help would be appreciated. I will attach the file.
Thanks
Adam

RE: Cant get part to convert.
After conversion the expressions with inch units will not be converted to mm, but the file is metric.

After all, if you had a Metric unit Part file containing a 'plate' with a 10 mm hole next to a 1/2 inch hole and I converted to to an Imperial unit (inch) part and then back again, what would you expect the model to show?
