RE: NX9 Create Point in a Sketch
Question though, why would you use Cursor Location? I can't see a need for it. Maybe the bug fix will be to remove this option!
RE: NX9 Create Point in a Sketch
The inferred option may pick up an endpoint, centerpoint, etc based on your snap settings when you really just want the cursor location. Using the cursor location option guarantees that you don't create an unwanted constraint and is faster than disabling/enabling your snap points. Just because you don't see a need for it doesn't mean it should be removed.

Note that I just tested the next version of NX (which is being beta tested by 'real' users this week and next) and it appears that this has indeed been fixed.
