    Identify Version of NX File

    Have you tried opening the NX file in notepad and searching for "NX"? On the files I tried it on it comes to a line that lists multiple NX versions, I assume the first one listed is the latest version it was saved in Side note - same can be done with a catia file. search for "Last", "Min", etc...

    Assembly Cloning

    Would using the "Log File" help for what you are doing? Specify the output and do a dry, open the txt file and make modifications as needed. Change "NAMING_RULE" to "USER_NAME", 4th(?) line down from the top. Then run the clone and use the "Load and Apply Existing Log File". I always point the...

    Reference sets

    Is there a way to find out what layers are included in a reference set? Is it possible to write a journal to list all reference sets and the layers included in each? Thanks, Kevin

    Feature Def Error

    Fernando, I have attached a file, I get the error when I try to run a variable fillet. If I separate the surfaces I can use Shape Fillet without issue. After reconstructing a shelf I no longer had issues (Join.130) Any help in understanding the error would be much appreciated. Thanks, Kevin...

    Feature Def Error

    I am doing some surfacing and I am getting an error that I do not understand. It seems to only effect "Variable Fillet. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Error: "Feature Definition Error" "In-Out Cycle detected in feature structure" Thanks, Kevin V5R22

    Selective Loading in the assembly navigator

    If your assembly load option is set to "Structure Only" the above journal can be used to selectively load parts based off text search based off user input. Example: user inputs "01", any file in assembly that contains "01" will be loaded. Do an alt+F11, paste in code, save and give it a try

    Quadro Card Settings

    I am running a K2000 and it seems to work just fine for me. But, I am using the 340.52 driver. If I remember correctly there are new drivers but we were having issues with those.
