Text engraving and UDF
Text engraving and UDF
(OP)
Hi,
I would like to create an UDF for engraving text but I didn't find the way to store the choice of the text inside the UDF even with string expression. Is it possible with NX8.5 ?
Thanks in advance

See the attached file. The expression that this is looking for is "TXT1" for line 1 and "TXT2" for line 2 etc.

Thanks for your example. that's what I was going to do. Could send an image to understand the question to place the UDF ?

RE: Text engraving and UDF
once you have all of that activate the UDF.
1. Pick the center point of the datum csys.
2. pick the surfaces the text is to be placed on.
3. pick the solid.
when it is done the text will be trimed and then united to the solid.
