    Consolidate the commands in NX

    Hi, NX1872. I think Siemens should consolidate Fill Surface, N sided surface and Fill Hole commands into one command. That would be much easier. Basically they are multiple ways to fill the gap or build a surface to fill void. Share your thoughts.

    How do I stretch Curve in NX1879 ?
