Hi,
how NX9 open assembly file and relative sub-assembly with this two new different settings ?
how NX9 open assembly file and relative sub-assembly with this two new different settings ?
Thank you...
Using NX 8 and TC9.1





RE: NX9 open alphabetically or chronologically
•Chronological, Alphanumeric, and Alphabetic, which are available in both native NX and managed modes.
•Sequential, which is available only in managed mode.
The default state of legacy data is chronological
When you update the order of components, the order is saved with the assembly and used the next time you load the assembly.
RE: NX9 open alphabetically or chronologically
Example :
1) If the file name component 1000.prt is at the 10 level and Alphanumeric / Alphabetic is the first in order to the entire assembly, it's opened for first ?
2) For Chronological rule, how NX9 loads components and sub-assembly ?
Thank you...

Via NXOpen can decide the sequence (sequential) like in menaged mode (Teamcenter) ?
Thank you...

I just migrated to NX 9.0.2
Where do you change the default sorting order for the Assembly Navigator?
All my assemblies display in Chronological Order now, which I think did not exist (used to be Alphabetic or Alphanumeric, don't remember, but I was used to this)
Can't find it in Customer Defaults.
Thank you...

RE: NX9 open alphabetically or chronologically
I knew that... But every assembly or subassembly coming from NX8.5 opens in NX9 with intial sorting of their components by default in chronological order.
Once changed manually this preference is saved with the file, but I was just asking how to set this default to alphanumeric, if there is such a setting.
Thanks

Thanks!
RE: NX9 open alphabetically or chronologically
This example set the order to "Chronological". To use other orders replace Chronological with Alphabetic, Alphanumeric, or the name of your custom sort order.
CODE --> VB
Option Strict Off Imports System Imports NXOpen Module NXJournal Sub Main (ByVal args() As String) Dim theSession As Session = Session.GetSession() Dim workPart As Part = theSession.Parts.Work Dim componentOrder1 As Assemblies.ComponentOrder = CType(workPart.ComponentAssembly.OrdersSet.FindObject("Chronological"), Assemblies.ComponentOrder) componentOrder1.Activate() End Sub End ModuleHTH, Joe

And as you can see, this will only have an effect on Assembly files which have NOT been saved with a 'sort order' already set, which means that it will have no effect on Assemblies created in NX 9.0 and NX 10.0, only those created prior to that, so any Assemblies that you save, it will remember what the order option was when it was saved and will not be overwritten by this setting even if it was set to something different.

Joe, the script works great!
RE: NX9 open alphabetically or chronologically
The version of NX we have installed doesn't appear to have that option, what version is your image from?

RE: NX9 open alphabetically or chronologically
That is why your version does not have that option.
