Exploded Views in NX 9

Exploded Views in NX 9

Exploded Views in NX 9

(OP)
In NX 7.5, this was a little convoluted, but it worked. I would create the explosion, adding the guide lines, in the model side of the drawing file. But to get it to show up on the drawing I would go to View -> operation -> save as, and save the view of the explosion, then I could select this when placing a view.

I have tried this process in NX 9, but the newly saved view is not showing up as an option when placing the view, even though it shows up when I return to the view save as operation.

So how do I get the exploded view to show up in the drawing?

Thanks in advance for your help.

RE: Exploded Views in NX 9

When you add the view, make sure the "selected part" is the drawing file and not the model file.
