Drawing to .dxf from NX Journaling site... not working in NX8.5 native
Drawing to .dxf from NX Journaling site... not working in NX8.5 native
(OP)
We have been using the Drawing to .dxf code from “NX Journaling” in NX7.5 and it has been a real time saver.
Configuring NX8.5 native and the existing code failed. Found updated code from NX Journaling site here: http://www.nxjournaling.com/?q=content/export-draw... however this still has some issues in our native NX environment.
The code completes the initial .cgm export, however NX hangs at that point. The log file includes the line: *** Failed to load NX part file. This prt file does not exist OR NX prt file may be from higher version ***: C:\Temp\UGS\basc1638b54fr8g2.prt. (FYI, in our environment, UGII_TMP_DIR= C:\Temp\UGS ). Thanks in advance for any insight.

If it worked for you on NX 7.5, but errors in 8.5; that indicates to me there is a significant difference in your environment. The journal writes info to the log file as it executes; it writes specific lines at the start and end of execution, it looks something like:
CODE
If you look in that section it might give you more clues as to what went wrong. Or, if you want, you can email it to me and I'll be glad to take a look. You can find my email at the top of the dxf export journal or elsewhere on the nxjournaling site. I'd post it here, but eng-tips frowns upon posting email addresses.
