NX9.0.3.4 Analysis Tools
NX9.0.3.4 Analysis Tools
(OP)
I am trying to use the face analysis tools in NX to analyse the smoothness of an aerofoil surface.
I have looked at multiple tools including "dynamic deviation analysis", "face curvature", "grid analysis" and "radius".
The one that I have decided is most relevant for my application is the face curvature tool, however when I turn off all the other analyses in the part navigator tree there is still an analyis graphic covering the aerofoil surface in the geometry window!
Is there a hidden menu somewhere that I cannot see that includes the "radius" command?
The reason I ask is because this is the only tool not displaying in the part navigator!
Otherwise is there a way to reset (turn off) all analysis tools used in an NX model, so that I can add just the face curvature?
Kind regards,

( No, that is not consistent with how other analysis methods work...)
Right click in the graphics window and select Display mode - Shaded with edges ( Display Mode was renamed into "Rendering Style" at some point in time.)
- The bottom line of that pull out has the option "Face analysis", - which is what you are looking at now.

NX would not allow me to deselect all faces but I was able to select a small face elsewhere in the model so the issue has now been avoided!
THANKS AS ALWAYS.
