NX 8 - Visualisation !
NX 8 - Visualisation !
(OP)
We have moved to NX 8 and since that I have a hard time with Visualisation
Could you help on Preferences because whatever I turned on / off it doesn't work ...
- to see real math data I have to Update display all day
- when moving/zooming with Work Section ON, all math data is turning like Light weight representation
How I would reset all ?

All components are Part and Exact however I can not figure out what to turn on and off in Preference

1. preferences/visualization
2. Faceting tab
3. Part Settings group
4. Part Settings section
5. Under shaded view set Resolution to Ultra Fine
I have tried this and it works. When it was set to Coarse, I had to use Update Display all the time. When I select a part and used Make Work Part command, the hole edge was not circle, rather polygon. And when I used above mentioned setting, the hole looked like it should. No coars polygon anymore.
But have in mind, that setting this to Ultra Fine will slow down working with NX. It will take a lot of time to update all the parts/edges everytime you set a part to Work. So, consider something else, rather than Ultra Fine.

I am not a beginer but I can not fix the preferences for this

I guess, if I have a hole in my part, I want to see a hole not a polygon.
To do that I have to Update display
I can do the job but I do not like the appearance of the display....
So my question is this : can I reset the preferences (for visualization) to default to see if this help ?
RE: NX 8 - Visualisation !
For example, open the template file for modeling, that is model-plain-1-mm-template.prt or model-plain-1-inch-template.prt. Then change the Preferences/Visualization settings and save the file back in the template folder with the same name (model-plain-1-mm-template.prt). So basically, you just have to overwrite the original template file. Of course, the template file must not be read-only.
From now on, every new part you create with this template will have this new setting. Of course, this will not affect the old parts, created in previous template files.
I hope that this will help in customizing your template files.
