    How To Import Small Pic Into Drafting

    If you don't have a 3D model in your assembly you can import an image on the dwg. Command: Menu -> Insert -> Image This will allow you to insert a jpg, png or tif images. You can then resize by dragging the corners to fit the area you need. You might keep the "aspect ratio" locked when...

    Transform Command NX8 - NX10

    Carlos, Yes, you are correct in the modification of the "transform" feature. You will need to use "Move Object" now (Menu -> Edit -> Move Object) or <Ctrl T>. I was not happy initially when this occured but it is a more powerful form of moving objects and can be associative if needed. Current...

    NX training (In house)

    We are looking for a company to provide in-house training to refine our methods, possibly, the way we design/detail our products. I have searced this site and found the below options. 1. Design Visionaries (they have good feedback from eng-tips users) 2. Siemans Does anyone have any other...

    Replacing components in multiple assemblies

    I actually have several components of several asm's that are the same. I was just trying to simplify my question a little. Anyway, I thought about using the copy/paste within the ANT window, which would work but would disassociatte my dimensions on my dwgs. I found a little faster way to use...

    Replacing components in multiple assemblies

    I need to replace a component that is used in several assemblies. I opened up all the asm's. I replaced that one component, but it only occurred in the asm I was working on at the time. Is there a way to replace that one component in all the asm's that are opened up? Thanks, Allen Current...

    how to import drafting views with sheet to a part file from another part file on Siemens NX 7.5

    Export a CGM of the dwg you want to import on another dwg. On the file you want to import to, create a new view in the modeling application, for example "test". Switch to Drafting and add the view "test" to your current drawing. You might make sure the CGM is only on one specific layer so you...

    NX 7.5 Any way to places views of a model at different time-stamps on drawing

    Lorenolepi, You could create a JPEG of each timestamp and insert into a drawing using "Insert -> Image". We use this to place our products on an informative wall chart for quick reference. It is not associative but you can get what you want. Hope this helps. Current version: NX 7.5

    VB Code help (code line to remove text before &quot;-&quot;)

    Cowski, I had to modify it a bit to incorporate my existing "StrInput" file. I was able to use the main portion and make it work for us. Thanks a lot, Allen Current version: NX 5.0.4.1

    VB Code help (code line to remove text before &quot;-&quot;)

    I was needing a command line to remove the beginning part of an output file currently being produced by our VB program. I am using a program that creates a PDF into a certain file structure. With recent filenaming sructure changes, I need to remove part of the output file. (see example below)...

    Custom Drawing Border Updating with Sheet Size?

    Andy, Instead of using 1 template dwg part and pulling in the 3D math data, which is what I think you are doing, we use "pattern"'s for our dwg borders. We also use a separate file, we call "template" file that just contains the text notes to modify and also the revision borders that need to...

    No tracking bar for &quot;Basic Curves&quot;

    I have a coworker that cannot get the "tracking bar" when using commands like "basic curves". I cannot find any setting on where this might be. I know you can "hide" this bar by using MB3, but I do not want to do this on my setup. I wont be able to turn it back on if I do. Look at the...

    Journal capabilities?

    We are using a form of NEMO through our internal website. We have to login using our windows ID and Pwd to get there. This might be a problem, program wise, to use this application of NEMO. Bottom line is we need to get good quality tif image with the genlst file placed in our TEMP directory...

    Journal capabilities?

    I am sending all file translation points (PDF to TIF & TIF to TIF w/ (gen lst). The "text" file has an extension of lst. This lst file is used by Cheops to know which tif image to get and where it is at, which is (C:/temp). First we translate the PDF to TIF, using NEMO. Then we translate the...

    Journal code help

    That works. I created duplicate files with different scales. That program will save our group a lot of time of manually renaming files. Thank you, Allen Current version: NX 5.0.4.1

    That was a typo, sorry. I need a PDF file. *********************************** I need this program to create a PDF named(ex. E1234567A00_1.pdf ). *********************************** There are no attributes created for each revision file. Thanks, Allen Current version: NX 5.0.4.1

    Journal capabilities?

    I was looking to find out more about what NX Journal can do. I currently use a Journal file to export PDF files into a certain directory. I was wondering if a Journal program can go outside of NX and onto a different file translation website, like NEMO? We need to export a PDF, then to a TIF...

    Jagged curves when exporting a PDF &amp; TIF

    Jon, I was able to get the tolerance smaller (.064) from (.16), but not go down to zero. I am still getting the same result. I did run a Journal program that we use for our dwg's yesterday on another asm and it looked good. I hate not being able to duplicate the problem on a consistant basis...
