    Arrangement linked to an expression

    Simon, In your post above you mentioned that it's easy to make expressions arrangement specific. How would I go about doing that? While my final desired result may not be worth the effort and may be more easily achieved using two seperate assemblies having an expression driven by an arrangement...

    Arrangement linked to an expression

    Simon, I have a parent assembly of a family of parts. The main variable that differs between the parts is the overall length of the assembly, which subsequently determines the number of components to use and their position. At the moment this is all driven by expressions, and while it works I...

"Delay after Edit" is turned off and I've tried to edit the fastener stack using the "Edit Reusable Component" option. The model is as simple as...

    Issue with Fastener Assembly

    Hi All, I seem to be having an issue when it comes to inserting fastener assemblies. I've included a picture to try and help explain things. I effectively have a cylinder (dia 3000 mm), to which a drive sprocket is bolted. The problem I come across is that NX recognises three coaxial holes (two...

    User Define Sketches with a Spread Sheet

    Thanks John, I was unaware of the Machinery Library. I have now installed both ANSI Inch and Metric Reuse Libraries, however I am unable to drag any sections into my model. I have tried dragging onto a plane, into a regular sketch as well as into the sketch task environment. I have also tried...

    User Define Sketches with a Spread Sheet

    Hi Guys, We often create models using off the shelf steel sections (I-beams, channels etc). Is it possible to create user define sketch sections using a spreadsheet containing the dimensions - much like you can with Part Families? Cheers, Alex NX7.5
