Anyone else find NX8 to be quirky?
Anyone else find NX8 to be quirky?
(OP)
Has anyone else noticed that once in a while there expression wont update? I have narrowed it down to features that fail during the update. (due to a multitude of things) Normally a dialog box appears upon failure of a feature in the part navigator. Asking you to accept,accept remaining,undo, etc... This fails to appear. If you restart your session, everything works fine. You can manually work through each feature, but why isn't the software continuing to bring up the dialog box?

I'm waiting for an update,too

Preferences -> Modeling -> Update
...where you will find several options which can be toggled ON is desired which will control what type of failures you wish to be notified of.
Also note that these options can be preset at...
Customer Defaults -> Modeling -> General -> Update

It is not memory leakage, I have been on UG since V18, and so far I have never had this problem until I started running NX8, it is not the systems cause I have had NX7.5 open for days and never had a issue like this Jim Reed is right there is something quirky with NX8.

If you run on Windows, memory leakage is still an issue, even with Win7-64.
While you may be something 'quirky' in NX8, yet it goes away after a reboot, then report it to GTAC so they can investigate it as it will be the only way it gets fixed in future builds.
When I first started investigating the use of Windows NT for UG V16, I had 3 PCs on loan from vendors for evaluation. All 3 systems showed a similar problem. HP sent a tech from Houston to PA to see for themselves what the problem may be. He was there a full day testing and trying different things. In the end, about 3 weeks later, they asked me to try a new graphics driver, which did cure the issue. At the next User Group meeting, HP acknowledge that they had found a bug with the help of a customer in ALL graphics drivers and had worked with the graphics card vendors to fix the problem.
Bottom line is that reporting problems does help everyone even though it may take some time to work through the issue.
