Template Replacement
Template Replacement
(OP)
Hello Everyone,
I am in a little bit of a bind and would appreciate some assistance. I created multiple parts in NX 8.0 with just a standard part template since that was my only option at the time. My client now wants me to use their drawing borders in my drawings, but I do not know how/if I can replace the current part template with the new one. Can this be done in NX 8.0 similar to replacing a template in Solidworks as seen in the attached image? Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

The pattern.prt is not createable importing solidworks template into NX and save it.
To create pattern you need to create your template in modeling environment.
Thank you...
Using NX 8 and TC9.1

- if you need to change sheet size: right click on the sheet in the part navigator and choose "edit sheet", pick new sheet size
- delete the existing title block entities that are no longer needed (easy to do if they belong to a group, select the group and delete)
- File -> import part, import the part that contains the new title block. Turn on the 'group entities' option to make it easy if it needs to be swapped out in the future.
The above doesn't apply if you are using patterns for you title blocks. Also, I have not tried out the new NX 8+ borders, so I don't know how they will change things (if at all).www.nxjournaling.com
