NX Site DPV preference not being read
NX Site DPV preference not being read
(OP)
Has anyone else experienced this:-
Set object preferences in the site DPV file (color, Line Style, width)
But these settings never appear in the part?
Any ideas
Cheers NXJ

I suspected that is how works, and that's exactly how I got around the issue.
Seems odd then that Siemens have a section in the customer defaults that does nothing! (in NX11 at least)
cheers for confirming what I did is logical.

It does something, just not what you wanted. Setting the customer default options still has value; some dialogs (mostly drafting stuff) has an "inherit from customer defaults" option. Customer defaults were a much bigger deal before they introduced templates. Since most of the settings are saved at the part level, most of the changes you make these days involves editing the template file(s).

in the file you want to apply your customer default,
Open the Drafting or Modeling preferences
at the bottom setting sources, select Customer Defaults, then the ICON (Im not sure), Next hit Apply the OK
