Rendering with Text
Rendering with Text
(OP)
Is there a way to add text to the bottom of a rendered image? I have created numerous parts in NX 8.5 and am now creating multiple renderings of each one. Each of these images will go into a single pdf later for documentation purposes. I need a label with each image in the pdf to indicate which part is pictured. Is there an easy way for me to apply this label when creating the picture within NX? The output would be the part rendering with text below it for my custom label.
This would just save me time of having to add it to each picture in some other software later.
Thanks in advance

1) orients the wcs to "current view". ( X and Y parallel to screen) ( Format - Wcs- orient... - Csys of current view)
2) someway there is an option to get expression to read the file name, create this, John knows how
3) create a "text" that uses the expression from 2) "file name", place this text somewhere ( now parallel to screen due to 1). )
4) extrude the text. Use Extrude instead of Bounded planes because you then get to select the text with one click.
Extrude distance from 0 to 0 creates sheet bodies inside the text.

Tomas
