    Conversion Status Window

    Thank you cowski. I had not realized a message is posted in the notifications. I rarely have notifications open, but will start paying more attention. While I may not ask many questions, I read the forum often, and always find your contributions helpful. Thank you. Ken H.

    Conversion Status Window

    First I'd like to thank all the active members who provide the helpful guidance. You have benefitted more than just the people asking the questions, and it is much appreciated. On to my question. Current Version NX2212 I have found that while creating specifically stp conversions there is no...

    Indicators of hardware weaknesses?

    First I would like to thank the members who share their knowledge on this site. I lurk here often picking up bits of useful information. I would like to ask if there are clues during the file loading process that indicate hardware weaknesses? While opening our files, most "hang" at 45%. I...

    Pattern Assembly Components - NX11

    I believe at the top of the assembly navigator, there is a pattern indicator with a plus next to it. Expand the plus field. Then right click in the white area at the top of the field, and select the "do not display pattern in graphic window" or some other wording similar. This is all from...

    Geometric Properties dialog box precision.

    cowski, you are understanding correctly. The "results" display using the dynamic geometric properties. Sorry for the confusion. It is nice to have the immediate feed back of the dynamic. Thank you all for your input.

    Geometric Properties dialog box precision.

    Jerry, thanks for attempting to answer this. I have set the dialog box decimal places to 6, Info window to 12, and tracking bar to 4. Unfortunately the geometric properties dialog results still appear as 3 place decimals. So the search continues.

    Geometric Properties dialog box precision.

    Sorry. Currently using NX 10 will be switching to 12 soon.

    Geometric Properties dialog box precision.

    The search feature didn't answer this question. Is it possible to set the number of decimal places displayed in the "Geometric Properties" dialog box? It is a very handy tool, but would like to increase its precision. Thank you.

    Highlight fields in the Expressions dialog.

    Toost, Thank you for your suggestion. You are correct, in that I often open, alter, and save a variant of the file. The reason I am asking is to create an interface that is easier to navigate for those I work with, who are reluctant to use an expression driven model. They would prefer to...

    Highlight fields in the Expressions dialog.

    Due to a lack of reply to this, I take it highlighting a field is not an option. Would altering the text font be an option? Maybe make the text font bold for an individual field. Thank you.

    Highlight fields in the Expressions dialog.

    I have a question regarding the “Expressions” interface window. Is it possible to have certain text fields highlighted, for easier/quicker identification? (For example could the "length" and "engage_min" fields be highlighted.) If so, could someone please explain the process or attach a link...

    Maintenance Release install.

    Thank you all for the clarification.

    Maintenance Release install.

    I have been asked to load NX 10 on to a couple of our company's computers. I realize maintenance releases contain all previous maintenance packs. My question is, do all maintenance releases contain all previous releases as well? In other words, is it required to load each release in order, or...

    Balloon Annotation

    3) press MB1 and drag mouse away from line, -as long as MB1 is pressed the arrow will slide along the line[COLOR=#CC0000] as soon as you release MB1( but no-click) the arrow will stop sliding but the balloon still dragging. That is the behavior I would like to be able to control. When I...

    Balloon Annotation

    Unfortunately, yes. You must click "Select Terminating Object" prior to selecting the item which you want to balloon. If anyone knows of a way to alter the default condition of the balloon menu, please share it.

    Balloon Annotation

    The release of NX 10 messed with the default selection stage. I found it easiest to just manually advance the menu. Under the "Leader" pull down within the "Balloon menu. Click "Select Terminating Object" prior to selecting the item you want the leader to terminate at, this will stop that...

    drawing file structure

    This has been a recent problem for our company as well. Is there a customer preference setting that can be set to default to the "work part" when placing a view? Also could someone explain the benefits of not using the "add assembly" into modeling, then creating the drawing based on that...

    Sketch dimension decimal places?

    Thank you, cowski. Also thank you for the suggestion.

    Sketch dimension decimal places?

    Is there a separate setting for displaying sketch dimension decimal places? I would like to have my sketch dimension show as 4 place decimals, while drafting dimensions display as 3. Thank you. Ken

    Help with balloon leader

    Another method is to "Select Terminating Object" under the "Leader" pull down in the menu field, prior to selecting the edge. All previous releases automatically had this state active when the command was activated. It would be nice if his were the default and adding the extension was an...
