Drafting NX7.5 Image (company logo) within pattern
Drafting NX7.5 Image (company logo) within pattern
(OP)
Hi,
I have no problems retrieving my patterns and putting them in drawings, however, i recently added our company logo to our prints within the title block. i can save the prt file/pattern just find within UGII/templates and retrievein my dwg file, however, it does not bring the jpg within the pattern file into my dwg.prt file under format>patterns>retrieve pattern.
in my pattern file under file>save options i've got compress part on save, save dwg cgm data, save 3D annotations and pattern data only selected. are there any other settings i should have check?
how do i get the image within my drawing pattern (A1, A2, A3 etc) to populate my sheet like the border, text and title block does?
thanks,
patrick

This is the route that I've gone, where I added the 'Siemens' logo as a jpeg image, placeing it on the face of my Drawing template after I had created my Drawing border and titleblocks, as shown below:

So you are basically saying instead of using patterns i should just open my part file directly that contains my pattern and use that? if i go that route everything is live and one could change or alter the drawing template other than the fields which are open for text.
so there is no way to save the image in my part file so when i do want to bring in a pattern it comes along?
what happens if you realize your sheet size is wrong midway and you need to go up or down, you would have to redo all wouldn't you rather than just changing the sheet and selecting a new pattern?
thanks,

I'm testing what you are suggesting, but when I change the sheet from A4 to A3, the title block stay as before.
Solution for this new type of template ?
Thank you...
