I found a solution, which is to change the Emphasis settings under the Visualization preferences to remove the edges. However, for some reason, the de-emphasized geometry is translucent. The translucency slider only goes down to 30. Is it possible to make it opaque, yet still remove the edges...
Hello,
The situation is this: I have an imported mesh-like human body upon which I create a wearable product. To clearly see the product, I choose the "Shaded with Edges" rendering style. The problem is, the human appears too complex with all the mesh lines (smooth edges). What I need is the...
Look into Autohotkey. It's a powerful scripting language to control the behavior of the mouse and keyboard. For example, with NX, I use it to map one of the side buttons on my mouse to the Rotate command, thereby saving my middle finger from getting hurt by constantly pressing down on the narrow...
I have done nothing in regards to part families, there are no part family members in existence. I'm beginning to think this has something to do with WAVE links. Originally, PartA contained WAVE links from other parts, and other parts also contained WAVE links from PartA. Maybe this is the reason...
Hello,
I was attempting to rename a part (partB) to a name (partA) that was occupied by another part. So I removed the other part (partA) from the assembly and deleted it in file explorer. Now, when I attempt SaveAs on the part I want to rename, it shows the error:
The following objects failed...
Thanks Tomas, it helps.
So all files originating from STEP will have the same UID. NX will treat parts which have the same part name AND UID as if they're the same, which sometimes might not be the case. It would be nice if NX could give the user a warning if it finds multiple parts with the...
cowski, that's greatly appreciated. From now on, whenever I receive STEP files I'm going to add cloning with new suffix to the workflow just to be sure.

Yes, both would have the same color. However, i don't think it's a bug. As I said, proe solves this issue by automatically renaming the same named part by adding a "_1" suffix, but with NX it's different. I want to understand if there is a way to open both parts, or if there is a requirement in...
I don't think load options is the problem. Let's say we have two folders, called A and B, both of which contain 4 parts:
folder A:
A.prt
1a.prt
2.prt
3a.prt
folder B:
B.prt
1b.prt
2.prt
3b.prt
The structure of the main assembly:
Main.prt
-A.prt
--1a.prt
--2.prt
--3a.prt
-B.prt
--1b.prt...
Hello,
Someone sends me a STEP assembly which I add to my main assembly. I proceed to modify some of the parts in this assembly. Later, I receive another STEP assembly which I add to my main assembly next to the old assembly. To my shock and horror, some parts in the new assembly are...
My apologies, my example was too simple. In the case shown above, yes, the surface body does appear in the Unused Items folder. However, if the surface is used downstream, for example to trim off the solid body, it disappears from the Unused Items folder. See below example. My question still...
In this case I'm not using the reference sets to control what's displayed in the context of an assembly, I'm using them to show what features make up each body.
Attached is an image showing what I mean. As you can see, only two of the bodies are listed, because the reference set is Model. I...
