Creating solids in NX 8.0

Creating solids in NX 8.0

Creating solids in NX 8.0

(OP)
I have been working with NX 7.5 for a couple of years now and just recently had NX 8.0 installed on my computer. For the life of me I cannot seem to find the cylinder, block, and cone design feature options on my toolbar or elsewhere. Extrude, revolve, and emboss seem to be my only options. Is it possible that I must utilize sketch options for creating simple cylinders and blocks? Thanks for any help.

RE: Creating solids in NX 8.0

The commands are probably just hidden for your role, use the command finder.

You may have to change to a role with full menus; or customize the role you are using.

Also, if you can't find a command go to:
Help -> Command Finder
It is also located on your "Standard" toolbar
