NX multiple drawingSheets in the same DXF file using journal

NX multiple drawingSheets in the same DXF file using journal

NX multiple drawingSheets in the same DXF file using journal

(OP)
Hi all

I have been playing a litte with my journal ,that can export DXF files from a NX drawingfile.
One DXF file for each sheet in part.

But I am trying to edit a copy of my program, because I need a variant, where all sheets are put together in one DXF file.

I have in test fase just written the sheets names in the Drawinglist seperated with commas.

>> dxfdwgCreator1.DrawingList = "SHEET1,SHHET2, SHEET3" <<

But it seems to only the first listed sheet is translated.

Someone here on site , can give a litle help,,?

RE: NX multiple drawingSheets in the same DXF file using journal

Make sure that you set the .OutputTo option to: DxfdwgCreator.OutputToOption.Drafting.
If the .OutputTo option isn't specifically set, it will use the default which is DxfdwgCreator.OutputToOption.Modeling. It seems the .Modeling option will only output a single sheet.

Hi Cowski -
thanks for you reply - I have being playing a little today, with my problem.
And it seems to , that the solution is excatly what you mention in you answer.
I figured it out , just before I have to leave the office for today...
But I will follow up tommorrow...

(I tried record a journal , when I choose output to "LAYOUT" in the dxf wizard.
It also allow to select all drawingsheets in part .
and this result in this recorded line: > dxfdwgCreator1.OutputTo = NXOpen.DxfdwgCreator.OutputToOption.Drafting <)

Cowski - I have a question for you. Because I know you have very high skills in NXOpen VB.net
Dont know if you want to answer on a public site...But just "dont do" if you not want to.
My question is simpel - maybee.dazed
Do you know where I can get some very serios og high quality traing or cource in NXOpen VB.net
Doesnt matter where the location is placed...almost

The school of hard knocks consistently hands out lessons that you won't soon forget...

Seriously though, I've not taken any formal classes on the NXOpen API, so I'm not in a position to make any meaningful recommendations on the same.
