3D centerline Offset

3D centerline Offset

3D centerline Offset

(OP)
Hi All,

Is there any way to set the offset on the 3D centerline to default None? Once a user has set this option it will remain and stored on part level.
This is a potentialy dangerous situation when someone else starts working on the drawing and doesn't notice this setting.

RE: 3D centerline Offset

It's not saved in the part, it's saved in the dialog memory file. I just ran a test on NX9 and NX10 and once it's been set, any part will have the offset method & value set as per what's saved in the dialog memory.
If it's an issue, I would set the roles you are using to stop saving the dialog memory.

It is an issue of course. But stop saving the dialog memory is not really wanted either.
For now we have a check which will produce an error when this used. Problem is when the check is run there might be already some 3D centerlines and the user has to recreate them.

Maybe a journal can solve this issue (resetting only this when a new drawing is started). I'll have a look if it is possible to run a journal on opening a new Drawingfile.
