Thanks everyone for the replies. I rolled my Java back to version 7 update 21 so that it is compliant with the qagent.jar file that comes with NX 8.5.2. I am disappointed that I have to lower my Java security level to medium (the lowest setting) because the SearchApplet is not signed (come on...

Hi cowski - Thanks for the rapid reply, but I knew that trick. I guess I should of stated that I tried delay view update. I have unchecked that one and I still have a problem. That selection is also hiding in the customer defaults and both are unchecked. That doesn't seem to solve this...

Hello Everyone - I have run into an issue with NX 8.5.2. One of the engineers has reported to me that their drafting sheets are always out of date when they open an existing drawing. They must force the update to occur. I am running the exact same version of NX on my machine, without an...

Hello All (again) - I think I answered my own question. Everything seems to be working correctly. I just gathered the direction of the unit vectors defining the ruled surface and determined if the norm of their sum was greater than the norm of any of the original vectors. If this is false...

Hello All - I am creating a utility that places a surface across a set of curves. I am utilizing a combination of through curve mesh, and ruled surfaces. When using the RuledBuilder, I add my curves, etc and generate the surface. My issue occurs after the surface has been generated. About...

Hello all - I am having an issue placing a point in a sketch via a Journal with the defining coordinates referenced by the WCS, and not the Absolute coordinates. When I have a random CSys, and create a journal locating a sketch point at (0,0,0) referencing the random WCS, the journal actually...

Nice Try Marc. I have tried to investigate this problem more, and found that the only keywords that work in a .tbr file is: HIDE ACTION ON OFF BUTTON SEPARATOR EDIT COMBOBOX BEGIN_DROPDOWN END_DROPDOWN OPTIONMENU The EXECUTE command you suggest is invalid. Thanks sumBuddy (Mechanical)...

Hello everyone - I am having difficulty creating a custom toolbar for NX6.0.4.3. I have a couple of executables created with NXOpen .NET and I have them signed and ready. When I create a custom user command in NX, I can choose the type of action that the button will perform, and I can...
