    Invisible/missing faces

    Thanks John You're right. It has to be a driver, because today, when I reopened the part, one of the two faces that were missing was no longer missing. I think it won't represent much trouble since when I make any other operation (extrude, substract, etc) the faces re-appear. If I have any...

    Invisible/missing faces

    Hello everyone! I'm designing a mold and after doing a "mirror body" I found out that some of the faces were missing (or invisible). Any idea why this happened? and how to fix it Thanks in advance! NX6.0.3.6 -> NX7.5.4.4 -> NX8.0.0.25

    Manufacturing module, mill contour

    Thanks for your comments. I used REST MILLING and it seems to work. I'll tell you if something goes wrong. NX6.0.3.6 -> NX7.5.4.4 -> NX8.0.0.25

    NX8 Can't Mirror a Patterned Feature

    NX8 Can't Mirror a Patterned Feature

    John These grooves are part of my model. I think I will wait for the update release, I hope this will fix this issue. For now I'll use an iron crosshatch at 90° and a note for the drawing. Thank you NX6.0.3.6 -> NX7.5.4.4 -> NX8.0.0.25

    NX8 Can't Mirror a Patterned Feature

    Well John, the feature I want to pattern and then mirror is Extrude(8). I'm using NX8.0.0.25 NX6.0.3.6 -> NX7.5.4.4 -> NX8.0.0.25http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=9dba4fca-1e97-4e53-af1b-02f839550b37&file=832_PL.prt

    NX8 Can't Mirror a Patterned Feature

    John The problem manifested in this way, I tried to do a Mirror Feature of a Patterned feature but I couldn't select it, this happen in the past with Instance feature and Swept operations and I found out that Instance Feature can not select a Swept but it can select a Feature group containing...

    NX8 Can't Mirror a Patterned Feature

    Hi! I'm using NX8 and I noticed that 'Instance Feature' was replaced by 'Pattern Feature' what I think is pretty cool. Today I was working in a model where I did a 'Lineal Pattern' of some features and then I tried to mirror it using Mirror Feature, but I coldn't do this. Then I tried doing a...

    NX8 Drafting: Can't dimension angles using existing dimensions

    Thanks guys! It's kinda strange the behavior of my dimensions because I noticed that it is not always, sometimes it referencesw my angle dimension to the existing dimension and sometimes not. What I'm doing is an "edit associativity" and then I select again the dimension I wish to be...

    NX8 Drafting: Can't dimension angles using existing dimensions

    Hi guys! I've been working in NX8 for a couple of weeks, and I noticed that I can't dimension angles using existing dimensions like I used to in NX6. I have 2 images, the one with blue dimensions was created in NX6 and the one with maroon dimensions in NX8. I want to make the 10° dimension...

    Solid Selection NX8

    John, that's exactly my case. I do not have permission to access the registry files. Well. If there isn't an option in Customer Defaults, I'll toggle it OFF everytime I need it. Thanks! NX6.0.3.6 -> NX7.5.4.4 -> NX8.0.0.25
