[NX 7] Intersection point

[NX 7] Intersection point

[NX 7] Intersection point

(OP)
Hi,
I've a multi-body part, where I need to rotate the connector from the intersection point born from connector axis and the plane.
I'm not able to create this intersection point.

Thank you...

Using NX 8 and TC8.3

RE: [NX 7] Intersection point

You may need datum planes to create an intersection point.
So place a datum plane on each face that you want an interestion of.

RE: [NX 7] Intersection point

I've always found it odd that you can't create an intersection point between a datum axis and a datum plane. The intersection point dialog insists that one of the inputs be a curve. As a workaround, I draw a line on top of the datum axis and use that for the input.

RE: [NX 7] Intersection point

Join the club.  I've asked several times for this and the explanations given have never been very satisfying, but if you would like to, please contact GTAC and have them open an ER to this effect since this will lend additional weight to the requests already there.
