Section view NX11

Section view NX11

(OP)
Hi friends

We have a problem with section view using NX11 Drafting, when I create a new view and I need to get another view for this one, both views move.
I need to "break" the link for those views.

someone of you have any idea?

Thanks in advance
Tom

NX10 soon NX11

RE: Section view NX11

When you place the view,in the view menu, switch of associativity.
This will make it move independent from parent view.

RE: Section view NX11

Tom,
Can you clarify on the exact course of events in this ?

The option "Switch off..." which Ronald mentions is not the hinge line, i think, but "Associative alignment". ( it appears as soon as you have placed the section line but before placing the view.)

- If someone asks me about this associative alignment between views it's a pretty useless & annoying feature implemented only because some other systems has it and then NX must have it too....
But, that's how the market works.
You can turn it off in the customer defaults:

Drafting general / Setup - Standard "customize standard" - Drafting standard - View- Workflow - General - Associative alignment


Regards,
Tomas
