NX Subtract Vs I-Deas Cut
NX Subtract Vs I-Deas Cut
(OP)
I am new to NX6. I have two different parts in two different windows. I use copy and paste the part I want to use as the tool in the target part window. So far so good. When I do a subtract all I get on the target part is the outline of the tool part. Only when I go to "Hide parents" in the part navigator bar I get the part I was after.
When I did this in I-Deas the parts would cut and the void would instantly show up.
Could someone please explain the Hide parents step
Please see pics.
