Locked attribute
Locked attribute
(OP)
In NX8 when I add an attribute "MATERIAL" and the value, it gets locked and I cannot change it or delete it if the value has to change.
Can I unlock it or what can I do?
Thanks

RE: Locked attribute
This change was made because too many people were using the Material Library function to assign a material but then latter edited the Attribute thinking that this would also change the material assignment (it doesn't). So this addresses that issue.

Customer Defaults -> Gateway -> Material/Mass -> Attributes
...and either disable the Material attribute or change the name to something besides 'Material', hit OK and restart NX.
