NX 10 split body / top down modeling
NX 10 split body / top down modeling
(OP)
My goal is to use top down modeling to design a frame then use split body to create the piece parts/coping then make a drawing that reflects all the piece parts. I can split with split body/planes but then it cuts across entire body, so the copes get messed up

Then you can draw a sketch to determine what to split.

Once you click the command, it will prompt for a template to use as well as the new file name and path to where you wish to save the new component. Select your template and then another dialog pops up where you pick the solid(s) that you want in the new component file; pick the solid(s) and define any other things like Reference Sets that you wish to utilize - I turning ON the delete option to delete the source solid(s) from the top level asm. When finished, look at your assembly navigator and your part navigator to make sure everything is set.
Fairly simple.
I'm using NX9, so hopefully this hasn't changed in NX10.
