BOM and centerline

BOM and centerline

BOM and centerline

(OP)
I have a drawing of an assembly with a BOM of 19 items (91 total parts) using NX 8.5.1.3
In the top view of the assembly I put a INSERT>CENTER LINE>CENTER MARK
When I use the center mark to dimension to an edge, it takes a long time to generate, and the BOM collapse down to 1 line with all 91 parts
It also does this if I try to dimension to a 2D Centerline
If I create (2) 2D centerlines perpendicular to each other and then try to create an ordinate dimension origin at the intersection, the BOM collapses
If someone could check to see if they have the same problem and then report it to GTAC
I do have the ability to do that.
Thank you.

RE: BOM and centerline

I'd suggest updating to the latest MR of NX 8.5 and re-testing before reporting to GTAC.
