Flat Pattern Additional Text
Flat Pattern Additional Text
(OP)
Hi guys
In NX7.5 I do a flat pattern from a sheetmetal part. After I replace the view to see the flat pattern, I add the text <W@$SH_PART_NAME> so that the file name appears on the pattern, this can then be marked during the plate cutting process.
When I do a drawing of all the flat patterns (a plate nest)I add each piece as its own view and use the model view "FLAT-PATTERN-X" but only the flat pattern data appears, not the text I added.
Even if I add the text to the FLAT-PATTERN-OBJECTS group it still does not appear.
Does anyone know how to make this work?
Thanks

RE: Flat Pattern Additional Text
However if you are using Master Model (which I assume you are), then it is as you say. We couldn't find a way to get it to appear.
I would suggest contacting your local support office
