RE: NX6: isoparametric curve through point ?
About the best that you can do today (with NX 7.5 or older versions of NX) is to first determine the U/V location of the point of interest on a Face and then manually enter those values into the current Isoparametric Curve creation function.
Now you could write a simple program which would allow the selection of a point on a face, extract the U/V parameters of this point and then create an Isoparametric Curve on that same face using these derived U/V values.

Could you point me in the direction, where I'd start with creating such program or at least the name of the API.
Thanks

BTW, can you execute GRIP programs?

I am a little forgetful about NX6 but i guess if you have a shape studio license then SECTION ANALYSIS too can be used for creating isoparam passing through a point.

John, yes grip works. I'll start digging help on it, as I run into problems requiring automation. Thank you.
