A simple wish, the ability to add a background picture when modeling in regular viewing mode not have to switch to studio mode and in addition the ability to pick from a color wheel the background gradient colors along with the value cells. Thanks, Buddy.

Thanks, I use near the end of a design to reduce the file size and have a simple base solid to work with before draft and fillets. Sometimes I also just export a part and check the remove parameters method to save a copy, that way I have the original if I need it. B.

NX 10 Is there a way to remove all of the tree structure in a part without having to export as a part? Thanks B.

NX 10, I get very rough faceting in drawing views especially small parts and fillets in particular,I have tried to increase the resolution everywhere from user defaults to drawing preferences and the only thing that seems to give decent results is to click on clip plane, under right click on...

Hi again, NX 9, Rapid surface command I select the facet body, check draw on facet body, and select under attachment, facet body. Ready to draw my first or four curves to define patch. Question one. On the object snaps bar by default I have endpoints, point on facet and point on face selected, I...

Yes, very simple indeed. Thanks a million, Buddy.

Hi,NX 9, I would like to know how to close the draw boundry when clicking point to point. The only way I have been able to close the boundry is to add a new set and it will automatically close then I have to remove the new one I just created which is (open), why can I not snap the last point to...

NX 9 I created some tables and oriented them into a title block and imported an image into one of the cells and so forth until I was happy. Then I define the title block and later populate it no problem but can I undo the define title block so that it goes back to the original tables. also is...

NX 9, I would like to know where I can set the arrow behavior from two arrows that are on the outside to the outside of a PMI diameter dim, to one arrow on the outside of a diameter feature. I can change it one at a time by right clicking and edit but where is it located so that when I create...

I searched this subject but found nothing, Can I lock down views in drawing after I have placed them where I want? NX 8.5 B.
