those who have played with the beta release are not allowed to say anything and the Siemens people will probably not say anything until the software is more close to release. - it's not popular if one states that "this and that" will be in the next release and when time comes "this and that" had to be excluded for some reason.
Ask again in the beginning of December

And to demonstrate what I mean, I just now this instant opened a Part file using the latest development phase of the NEXT version of NX, complete with a 3D wireframe model and fully dimensioned and annotated 'J-Size' Drawing, that was last saved using UG V9.1 some 21+ years ago. All I did to open this file was to go to 'File -> Open' and select the part file and hit OK. A few seconds later the part was open and all I had to do to see the Drawing was to switch to the Drafting module. I'll put that up against anyone else in the industry.

RE: NX10 next release? When?
It is such that "the other systems" files actually are different, or is it simply that they have added different "file name extensions" , ".asm", ".drwg" etc to a file where the file format itself is identical but the content is "assembly" , "drawing" etc ?
I guess NX could have taken that path, keeping a single file format but used different extensions to make the navigation for the users simpler and also start the same application as the extension indicated.
Do not get me wrong here, i LOVE the fact that i can run the Modeling and Drafting application on say a CAM partfile, this is wonderful, it's true design freedom.
But it would sometimes help seeing the type of content based on the extension.
Regards,
Tomas
RE: NX10 next release? When?
You may have some issues when upgrading, but reassociation of the file extensions would be easy. Teamcenter may be a different story and a lot harder to do this with.
One thing I dislike about diferent file extensions in when a designer creates a .prt, .asm and .drw file with the same 12345687 part number. I have to remind them that a .prt and .drw or .asm and .drw can have the same number, but not all 3. The data manager does not care and will let all 3 be checked-in.

RE: NX10 next release? When?
I was always searching for some who actually LIKED the way that in NX everything can be anything. Our Users HATE that they always have to switch to drafting etc. In their opinion NX has to know when a drawing is open etc. I think it should be no problem for NX to know when only drafting should be possible etc...
YOu are the very first one I met who LIKED this behaviour...
RE: NX10 next release? When?
Be sure I am not the only one shoe likes this.

RE: NX10 next release? When?
A user can tell if it is an assembly, part and or drawing by the icon in teamcenter integration throuhg NX. If you have teamcenter if you go to file open in NX. The icon appears diffrent next to the dataset if it is a drawing, part and or assembly.
RE: NX10 next release? When?
And YES, it's called NX 10.0:

Does NX10 still have direct sketch AND sketch in task, or have these two sketch methods been rationalised?

NX 8.5 with TC 8.3
RE: NX10 next release? When?
I was under the impression that extra icon sizes would be available. To fit better in the ribbon and address the issue of medium size icons and wasted space, versus, tiny icons.
I hope I am wrong, otherwise it will be a disappointment. Specially for those using small screens in laptops.
The ideal arrangement would be as the classic interface, being able to fit in the ribbon columns of 3 icons with 24 x 24 pixels each.
RE: NX10 next release? When?
The NX10 Beta has options for small screens. You can select "slim ribbon".
But better, get yourself a large screen laptop next time
Regards,
Tomas
RE: NX10 next release? When?
Based on John's NX 10 demo in Rochester yesterday, you probably wont be disappointed. There are now 4 icon sizes (small, medium, large, extra large). I believe he said the rule is 3 small, 2 medium, 1 large or extra large icons stacked vertically. There is also the option to have large w/o text (but you cannot stack two large icons this way). Additionally, there are tablet and touchscreen layouts available. Maybe John can post screenshots now?
There are also new "theme" options that basically lighten up the ribbon UI. There were lots of improvements to the sorting and such of the "customize" ribbon dialog as well. And some other improvements to the palettes.
Also featured were some really awesome surfacing features (can't remember what those were called), a reworked section view tool (you can draw sections lines like a sketch and then choose to insert the section view), and auto gapping on dimension extensions (yay!). Oh, and they changed the default mouse zoom settings as well. Mouse wheel in = zoom in, mouse wheel out = zoom out.
RE: NX10 next release? When?
Fill surface?
www.nxjournaling.com
RE: NX10 next release? When?
I use both, a small laptop and most of the time a huge 30" monitor.
The tiny size icons lack awareness in both screens, and using them with text defeat the iconography purpose.
The medium size is the ideal, mimics the classic interface size, allows to achieve bigger density and keeps a reasonable awareness of its meaning. However, it is only possible to stack two of them instead of three.
The basic idea is to get the maximum quantity of icons in the ribbon to reduce switching tabs and to obtain a performance similar to the classical interface.
Don't get me wrong, I like a lot the ribbon idea, but this current implementation waste too much space.

BTW, we've also added some additional enhancements to improve the user experience when running NX on dual monitors, such as allowing the user to move the complete Ribbon and/or the Resource Bar to the second monitor. In the case of the Resource Bar, this means that the 'navigator' panels will now expand out onto the second monitor WITHOUT the need of having to individually 'undock' them first.

1) are we, the beta testers, now allowed to speak about the software we ( still ) have ?
I do understand fully that things/ features/content still can change before NX10 goes live.
2) You say above that:
"Out-of-the-box, the NX 10.0 Ribbon uses a combination of Large and Small icons with text, just like NX 9.0 did. However, unlike NX 9.0, you now have the OPTION to also use Medium and Extra-Large icons, and except for the Extra-Large icon, which only comes without text, the other three sizes, Small, Medium and Large can be shown either with or without text. Note that the introduction of the Extra-Large icons is in anticipation of the use of 4K displays. Also there's an option to simply increase the size of the entire Ribbon by 50% which is probably the way most people who move to 4K displays will handle this rather than edit individual icons, but you have the option to take whatever approach that you prefer."
- If i look into the File - Preferences - User interface -Layout - Ribbon bar options, there is a "Slim ribbon style" which probably is what Millimeter asks about above.
There are settings under "Customize" - user interface for this "Slim ribbon" - Icons "extra small, 16x16" etc
Comments ?
Regards,
Tomas
RE: NX10 next release? When?
As to your question about the 'slim ribbon', if that is what Millimetetr was talking about, then that's NOT the out-of-the-box way that NX 9.0 (or for that matter, NX 10.0) starts up. The 'Slim Ribbon' is an optional ribbon scheme that's being added with NX 10.0 which does provide a somewhat similar layout to a single conventional 'toolbar', but it's actually there to support somemthing like the touch-screen layout for handheld devices, where a single row of icons is more appropriate then the default mix of different sized icons, with the smaller ones being stacked. The fact that the default 'Slim Ribbon' shows small icons is just a starting point and is not necessarily how we think it will actually be used.

I'm currently using/maintaining a program that writes listing window information to a network stored text file. I wouldn't really call it "parsing", but we are using the listing window info. This program is part of our export logging. This program runs automatically when someone chooses and export command. It checks if the user is authorized for export, writes their user name, date, and the part being exported and saves the LW info to a text file.

It is one of the things that make NX stand out in the world of computer applications, you can at any time get information about ( almost*) ANYTHING in NX, - Wonderful! -where would i be without it...
- example, Don't you guys hate it in say Microsoft Word/ any software when something gets screwed up, and there is no way of finding information about why or what ?
(* At the moment i am trying to find a report on assembly arrangements, which components are suppressed, which components have moved and to where, but this seems to be missing in NX7.5...
- Enhancement request in the works.)
