NX9 visualization Preferences
NX9 visualization Preferences
(OP)
In NX9.0.3.4 Visualization Preferences. Is there a way either in Visualization Preferences or Customer Defaults to keep Faceting Resolution for 'Shaded Views' set to Fine. I have set this in Customer Defaults to Fine but in the Part file it defaults to Standard. If I save part file with Fine (Facets) set it keeps the setting, however I must set every part file in Visualization Preferences - Faceting - Fine and save in order to maintain the "Fine" setting. I would like all part files I open to be set to "Fine" in Visualization Preferences - Faceting - Shaded Views - Resolution - Fine.
Thanks,
Rick D

That was a new one on me. Did not notice that behavior prior to NX9 but
it did the trick.
Thanks,

That worked when creating a new part file however I would like all part files I open to be set
to Fine? Anyone know how
Thanks

If it's that big of a deal, create a macro to change all the settings you want. Keep in mind, another user may change them back.

Yes I understand. Did not notice that behavior prior to NX9? In any event I have made a VB program to change them to Fine and
assigned it to a user command button.
Thanks

If you're particular or in need of certain settings, get them set now so that all newly created and afterwards saved parts will have the preferences you desire. If you're in a multi-user setting, you might consider using the same settings/preferences/defaults, etc. for all users if at all possible.

RE: NX9 visualization Preferences
Thanks again.
Been using UG since V10 (manufacturing primarily) and even a little V4 early on (joystick and numbered menu buttons). In NX9 the display refinement (hexagon holes displayed) seems a little more obvious to me. It would be nice if that feature could be set in customer defaults and not have to mess with it every part file as my graphics card can handle the "Fine" setting except extremely huge part files. I guess VB to the rescue on that one.
Have good one,

No problem - wasn't aware of your experience with UG and NX. I think cowski is on to something - I'm only on NX8, so that particular setting he's mentioning isn't applicable for me yet. Test it out and see how it behaves (whether it's specific to your permanent settings, session or individual files).
Star goes to cowski for pointing out a new setting with which to play.

Seen you both on here often and have followed many of your posts, respect to you both. Thought
I was going crazy but apparently NX9 Display behavior is changed a little. Really have not
had a graphic performance problem yet but I do prefer a smooth (round hole) display. Sometimes
you look at something and forget "it's just graphics".
Have a great day

Thanks for the compliment.
I hear you - it used to take a couple of hours to get NX up and running after a migration to a new version. Unfortunately, I believe those days are gone. My employer is trying to figure out how to customize a customized environment, so we're not quite ready for our NX9 launch.
Still waiting on the cerebral interface though....just think it and NX will do it. To anyone outside of design, they've thought we've had that type of interface for decades.

The settings discussed above apply to the tessellation of the exact geometry found in the individual part files.

RE: NX9 visualization Preferences
That is a related subject but yes I was referring only to individual parts and not an assembly.
