    Contextual links

    Using V5 R18. I have a part that has lost its links. I normally activate the part, right-click/components/define contextual links. But this time "ok" is not available. At the top of the define contextual link-box it normally shows the search string for the products in the assembly. Now it just...

    CGM import

    Thanks. I just did. Lets see what happens. When (if) I manage to extract the CGM as text, how to change the font in UG? Can I do it in one go? It is a large drawing. A lot of text and numbers...

    CGM-file as text

    I have a CATDrawing-file containg a drawing. I would like to convert it to a CGM-file to import into UG. I have managed to create a CGM through tools/image but when imported into UG it is only lines and the "filled" letters are made up by small lines. I would like to have a "lighter" font. How...

    CGM import

    I am sort of on my own. I have access to V5 also even if I haven´t worked with it that much. I have the drawing as a .CATDrawing-file. I need to convert into a UG drawing for the customer.

    CGM import

    No, the output is not text. I have tried the menues in V5 to try to find where to change it. If I manage to create a text CGM file, would I be able to change the font style? /Fredrik

    CGM import

    I have a CGM file of a drawing. It is generated from CAtia V5 drawing and I would like to import it into a NX5 drawing. The textfont is "bold", the letters are filled. I would like the letters to be unfilled, like silhouettes. I would like to keep the thickness of the letters. Is there a way to...

    Try to delete line

    Thanks for the effort. I do select with "multi select". It is actually 12 lines on top of each other. I have tried edit/delete and according to information/object the lines are not used. I guess I could upload the file since it is very small. Lets see when I am back at the office tomorrow.

    Try to delete line

    Nope. Tried that. Very strange. I can select the lines. When I hit delete nothing happenes. No varnings or errors. They just will not go....

    Try to delete line

    I have problems to delete a line from a model in NX5. The line is not used, not in a group, not the last element. When looking at it with information/object there is nothing. What should I try? Thanks
