NX title bar occasionally will not display application , part name....

NX title bar occasionally will not display application , part name....

NX title bar occasionally will not display application , part name....

(OP)
Normally, the NX title bar will Display "NX 6", indicate whether you are in modeling or drafting and show your part number on the left hand side. The right hand sde normally displays "SIEMENS".

Occasionally (frequently) the title bar will only display "N...". Everything else is gone from the title bar , even "SIEMENS. This happens to myself and several people that work with me. It always starts out with the proper display , then sometime throughout the day the :N..." usually occurs. The only thing we know of to correct this is to log out and back in.

Any suggestions on how to get the proper display back without logging out...or to prevent it from happening at all?

I will attach a snapshot viewable file of the title bar in both states to further clarify this.

RE: NX title bar occasionally will not display application , part name....

Here are a couple of things to try:

1) Minimize the NX window and then Maximize it again.

Did that reset the Title Bar?

2) Go to...

Preferences -> User Interface -> Layout

...and change the 'Windows Style' from whatever you've got it set to now, to something else and hit OK.  Now go back and change it back you original setting.

Did that help any?

Thank you.

Changing it from NX to System Theme brings it back.

It doesn't stay if I go bak to NX, but I can just leave it on the system theme setting.
