Thank you for sharing your knowledge Kapil, it is always interesting to see the different ways to tackle an area. I agree with Tim about only using mesh surfacing in a case like this, as it does afford more control in my experience. I will however look into the N-sided approach more now after...

Hi John The command is under - Edit->Curve->Length. Sorry for not making it clear.

Hi Guys I'm using NX7.5.0.32 on a Windows7 64bit, and I have a question hopefully someone can answer for me. I use the curve length command quite extensively, and it has changed between NX7 and NX7.5 in that it no longer is a dynamic input. What I mean is that when I select a curve in the...

Well this is embarrassing, I found 'Basic curves' under the insert option to add. Hopefully someone finds this useful, my apologies.

Ok, just found out that you can add commands to toolbars.(I'm a noob!) So added 'Set View to WCS' to the View toolbar, but I can't find 'Basic Curves'. Is this old friend finally going to leave?

Hi Guys Does anyone know where "Set View to WCS" toolbar location is? I can access it through - View - Operation, but it was so much quicker when it was on the 'View' Toolbar. Also, am I the only one that still likes 'Basic curves'? I can't find a toolbar location for it either. Thanks in...

Hi Guys Sorry for the trouble, we found the "Faceted representation' button. (noob)!

Hi Guys We are currently on NX6 6.0.1.5 One of my guys in the office is trying to generate a drawing from an imported STL/polygon file. And is having trouble removing hidden geometry. Firstly, is there a way to do this? And if so how? Best regards Martin

Hudson is correct, unfortunately that is the way I have to do it as well.

Thank you very much for this John.

It's so strange that you can use a certain method for defining curves on surfaces(for many years), and never realize that there is a much easier way. Thank you so much for this John. I feel like a noob!

Thank you John

Hi guys, please help me with the following problem. I am using NX 6.0.0.24. In drafting, when I add a detail view from a section it is removing the crosshatching. What am I doing wrong? And how do I fix it. Thank you

Hi John and Tim Thanks for the responses. The 'Rotate by Three Points' was exactly what I was looking for thanks John.(insert embarrassed smiley here) I'm still struggling with the whole dynamic move Tim, but I'm sure the more I use it, the more I'll wonder how I ever coped before.

Hi Guys I have installed NX6 and am really enjoying it. I just have a question regarding the transform command. It has been split into two separate commands, and I can't seem to find the "rotate about a point - by two points" command. I'm sure it's staring me in the face. Is anyone able to help?
