Hi Group, Forgot to mention - These are probably easy commands once known where to be found & how to use. Thanks JM Engineering Project Manager

Hi Rollupswx, Attach a file? I'm asking for AutoCAD 2012 command instructions or options. I would think that AutoCAD 2012 would have some type of point & align options, change entities to references & number of other features. Who know where these are & how they work? Thanks JM...

Hi CarlB & Others, Thanks for replying. I'm simply trying to take the center point of an arc or circle & alight the point onto a line, which I'm using as a center construction line or reference. Also, I wish to make some line entities &/or dimensions reference. I'm accustomed to using...

Hi Group, I also forgot... How do I make some of the lines & dimes reference lines or reference dims? Thanks Jason M. Unigraphics NX Designer

Hi, I'm using AutoCAD 2012. How do I get a point on curve or arc point on curve or at midpoint? Thanks Jason M. Unigraphics NX Designer

Thank you.

Hi Potrero, Believe or not, that is how the actual part looks now. The previous modeler did a hack job to create this model & now I'm attempting to make a "cleaner & more parametric" model of this same part. Originally, the previous modeler imported a bunch of splines & modeled away with...

Hi NX'rs, I'm attempting to model a component that has a little bit of transition curvature & twist to it. Additionally, the twist & transition has to go from thin to thick area (or vice versa). I attached a screen shot for reference. In this model, I'm attempting to remodel it, making a...

Hi Potrero, Thanks for the info. This helps a little bit. Jason M. Unigraphics NX Designer

Hi NX'rs, I've imported points & splines to make an airfoil profile. I'm looking for more "controllable" methods to modify chord / airfoil lengths, leading / trailing edge radii or any other section of the airfoil. I know points can be dragged around, but this seems dangerous to me...

Hi John, I was creating a .020 x 1 rectangle. Apparently, having 0.0254 model tolerance was a little too high. Jason M. Unigraphics NX Designer

Hi Everyone, My problem is resolved!!! It appears that I had my modeling tolerance too high & by going to: Prefernece --> Modeling, General tab, change the Distance Tolarenace from 0,0254 to 0,010. Thanks Jason M. Unigraphics NX Designer

Hi John & Others, I submitted my file to GTAC for review. This may be file specific issue, but I did have some other instances where I had the same situation. However, at the momenent, I can't duplicate the issue. As for NX 7.5.2.5, I need it today if this the solution to my issue...

Hi Everyone, Thus far, the above suggestions are not working. Just to test or to see if I can duplicate thei issue, I put a sketch on a datum plan & made a rectangle, using the internal sketch rectangle feature & let the auto constraints provide some constraints. I then exit out of...

Hi John & Others, As far as I can tell & should be, all curves are on the same plan - In most instances, on a datum plan. None of the curve entities that I'm trying to extrude are references curves either. My cue line says my sketch is fully constrained, which it appears to be. However...
