NX9 & NX10 Drafting - View break - Formula lost

NX9 & NX10 Drafting - View break - Formula lost

NX9 & NX10 Drafting - View break - Formula lost

(OP)
Dear Users,

I'm having some issues with the View Break in NX Drafting (NX9).
I can create the break exactly as I want- direction, offset, extensions... Everything is great...until I update my model.
I have to mention that the offset is referenced by an expression/formula. As soon as I update the model, the offset switches to Constant and keeps the old value, the connection to the expression is lost.

Did anyone else encountered this? Am I doing something wrong?




Update...

If a new View Break is created...it remembers the formula that has been used earlier (in the last View Break), but just for the first time (when creating the break definition). If I try to edit, the formula disappears.




Update2...

I tried on different models, on different PC's, some of them with NX10 and the problem is still there.


Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Bogdan

This is something you should take up with GTAC.
