Edit Drawing Sheet Size Vs Component Dimensions
Edit Drawing Sheet Size Vs Component Dimensions
(OP)
HI All,
I am using NX 8.5.3.3.
I have created a drawing sheet with Size D(22 X 34).
Now I have a variation In Component Dimension which will increase component size.
So with respect to Change in dimension, I have to edit sheet size. Is there any way, we can do this?(Link or make expression that will change sheet size with Certain Dimensions).

However, the scale of drafting views can be driven by an expression. Perhaps you could scale down the views when the part increases size.

To the right of where the view scale can be change there is an expression button where the view scale can be controlled by an expression.

I also have investigated the ways and I agree that sheet size is not editable w.r.t dimensional change however we can scale down the drafting views.
But my customer will not agree on same as they have their own standard of different sheet size based on component size.
Is there any way we can write short KF or Nxopen program and invoke that whenever drawing is opened, so that drafter can select the desired sheet size.
RE: Edit Drawing Sheet Size Vs Component Dimensions
The drafter can change the sheet size at any time (right click on the sheet in the navigator -> Edit sheet... and choose a different size). No custom code is required for the drafter to change the sheet size.
