John-Paul,
I would be very much interested in reviewing your test, being that many questions. I am still going through my book, about half way through so it will be a few more weeks before I feel prepared to take the sample test. Any help I can find and the more questions I can come across will...
John-Paul,
Thank you for your tips, I have the GDTP brochure on my cube wall where I see it every day to remind me. The ASME site says they will not be changing their certification to the 2009 standards until 2014, so I am good for now. I did find your test while searching yesterday and found...
I have read several post on some sites that have on-line testing available. I am looking at taking the certification for Technologist Level. My two on-line testing programs I am looking at are either ETI Learning center or Tec-Ease. Before I hit the button to buy an on-line learning package I...
I will be looking at different ways to handle this and spend some time in the "Help" area. I know there must be a way.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Would this work as well in copying feature(s) from one model to another? Our issue here is that the IT group likes to design the skin or outside of the housings, while the CAD Designers do the interior. We just got done with a hot project that presented problems with how long one group takes...
Lifttrucks,
I am also looking at getting my certificate, possible in June. I do expect like Dingy2 said to be totally brain dead afterwards. I just hope I pass. Going through all my books I have acquired throughout the years. It does seem logical that if they give you from 1 to 4 hours, you...
Ok.. I have had UG (NX5) close out on me three times this morning.
Question 1: I have an assembly, 45 parts. Some of the parts are showing up in the Parts list table. The parts list does not match what is in PSE. First thing I did was to lock to existing Part list so that adding new lines will...
John,
That is else something to try. Maybe this will help with importing large assemblies that will be bought as a single unit.

I will try out your suggestion of a top down assembly, but will that add components to the EBOM? That is something that I need to avoid. I am new still, so I may not know of the best way to do these assemblies. The copy bodies onto a layer seems to be working out well. I am labeling...
My "Assembly" is no longer objects but imported step file "bodies". Explode seems to only select objects so I am stuck. What I am using now seems to be a bit easier, copy bodies onto a new layer that can then be used to transform (move) the bodies into their exploded positions. It is going...
I am using NX5 6.3. I have a large assembly where we have changed the properties of all the components to reference only so that they will not show up in the EBOM. I need to create several exploded views with this assembly. Currently I add several base views and use the View Dependent Edit -...
nkwheelguy, If I follow you, you are correct in that the center of the slot does goes thru the theoretical circle's center. I think I was making the mistake of following what someone else did on the print. It turns out to be a simple, one line cut at an angle thru the "circle" and the angled...
I am new to UG and have searched everywhere I can think of to modify the default section segment from 90 degrees to a value I can enter. My problem is trying to take a section view through a center of a hole at 90 degrees, then through a slot that is angled at 3 degrees to get a true interior...
I am using NX5 and I am a newbie. I have read some previous threads but have not come across my error. I have created the curve in the expanded view on a oil bottle neck. I have made sure none of my point are on any geometry lines or edges. I then begin the broken view process. I select the...
Thanks guys.. I have decided to stay with the CAD packages I know. I am hoping things will improve soon. It is bad when your own contact are also looking for work.
Well now that I find myself in the vast pool of CAD Designers here in AZ [sadeyes], I am looking to see the value of learning CATIA on my own. I have worked with Pro/E, SolidWorks and AutoCAD. I am not familiar with CATIA at all and would love some advice. I would prefer to be able to go at my...
We have been having the same type of problem here at work. Two different computers with the same print. Our broken view had a cutout to expose the interior parts. When the print was started, the individual parts had their own hatch marks to match their material specification. When these prints...
