Recreate part model from a script or journal?
Recreate part model from a script or journal?
(OP)
Pro/E has these files called trail files, which is my understanding that you can play them back to recreate a part model from scratch. If I have a detailed part model in NX 6, is there a way to save off some creation script that I can then take and replay in a new blank part file to recreate the geometry?

I have heard of taking a syslog file and using it as a macro of sorts to help recover geometry from a crashed session (I've never done this myself).

Now if your problem is that someone accidentally deleted a file which was previously created without any errors, there's a good chance that the session's 'syslog' is no longer on the system. The out-of-the-box setting is to ONLY save syslogs which there were software errors during the session. If the session ran without any errors or there were only minor warning messages, these files are NOT automatically saved. However, you can change a setting which will keep ALL syslogs (look for 'UGII_KEEP_SYSTEM_LOG=yes' in the env file and uncomment it), but you'll be responsible for cleaning them out of the temp directory manually.
