Help!! I can't figure out why I can't reselect an extracted face.

Help!! I can't figure out why I can't reselect an extracted face.

Help!! I can't figure out why I can't reselect an extracted face.

(OP)
I'm running NX8 and I'm trying to reassociate an extracted face. For some reason I can't reselect it. I have to create a new one. Any one have this issue also?

RE: Help!! I can't figure out why I can't reselect an extracted face.

The face that you are trying to reassociate the feature to, was it created after the extract face feature? If so, you will need to reorder the extract face feature in the tree after the new face exists.

You can only reassociate an extract face feature to faces that exist prior to the timestamp of the extract face feature.

RE: Help!! I can't figure out why I can't reselect an extracted face.

You say you're attempting the "reassociate an extracted face". What functions did you use to create the original "extracted face", and why are you now attempting to "reassociate" it? In other words, what did you do that you now feel that you need to "reassociate" it?

If possible, could you provide a sample part where this behavior, not being able to select the 'extracted' face, is being seen?
