    Editing a part attribute (string) in a note

    Thanks for the replies. Cowski, your clear explanation is perfect. I managed to get done what I intended (the splitstring() command expected a list, so I selected "list"). For the hose dimension I wasn't able to retrieve the information because the attribute is on a lower part level.

    Editing a part attribute (string) in a note

    Thanks for your reply. I guess what you are suggesting is what I want, but I can't figure out exactly how. I read about the "ug_askcurrentworkpart()" function but I don't know how to split the string. In my case is the drawing a separate part with an assembly in it. The drawing contains the...

    Editing a part attribute (string) in a note

    Hi, I'm using NX 9 and I want to edit a part attribute in a note. To clarify what I mean I'll give an example: In a note I want to use a part of a part name. The part (hose) is named "A1 B2" where "A1" and "B2" stand for the place where the hose needs to be connected. Now I would like to add...

    How to create a volume file of a complex shape?

    How to create a volume file of a complex shape?

    I'm trying to create a volume file of a complex part. This volume file should contain the the part in its most extreme positions w.r.t. a specific point in the machine it is build in. In my case I would like to translate the basic shape on a circle and having all covered space included in my...

    Too large file/part NX7.5 how to solve?

    Thanks for the suggestions. I'm not that familiar with WAVE-linked copies so I didn't use that option. I followed cowski's suggestion (export to parasolid and import that file). This works perfectly.

    Too large file/part NX7.5 how to solve?

    Currently I'm working on a part which has become too large which makes NX very slow. The part is an edited copy of another part which has no issues. The eddited part is suposed a more simple version of the original part which I need for analysis. I did the following things: 1. Filling gaps and...
