How to manually change base view boundary using NX Open ?

How to manually change base view boundary using NX Open ?

How to manually change base view boundary using NX Open ?

(OP)
Hello Friends,

Is there any function in NXOPEN that is used to get the Base View information like view boundary ?
Also how can I manually change the view boundary by specifying the boundary points ?
I am using NX 7.5 & VS2008

Regards,
Amitabh

I really don't think there is a way to do what you want.
Can you explain why you would like to do that ?

RE: How to manually change base view boundary using NX Open ?

I've not tried it myself, but there is a ViewBoundaryBuilder class that looks like it might be what you want.

Precisely yes cowski , I am looking into the class ViewBoundaryBuilder but looks like that cannot be implemented if my view is a Base View.

I am looking into alternate solutions to my problem, thank for the help !!!

Amitabh

You may find the following functions of interest:
UF_DRAW_ask_view_borders
UF_DRAW_define_view_manual_rect

I ran across a PR (1767676) at GTAC, that indicates the ViewBoundaryBuilder was deprecated in NX6. But in the NX8 nxopen documentation, it is listed as being created in NX6. ponder
