    PTS doesn't create a new file when inserted in Assembly

    Hello javaxp I don't have any krx file though, only the PTS part file and the assembly file. Shouldn't this work out of the box without the need to manually edit any files? What is the expected behavior? I thought that what I'm trying to achieve was the whole purpose of the PTS Author...

    PTS doesn't create a new file when inserted in Assembly

    I created a fully parametric part and created a PTS interface for it through PTS Author application. Then, I saved this file to a directory that is inside the Reuse Library. When I create new assemblies and try to drag and drop it from the Reuse Library, it creates a reference to the original...

    Modeling Spreadsheet wrong behavior?

    cowski, which version of Excel are you using? I'm thinking about downgrading it to 2019 version, since the Docs don't list 2021 as supported yet, to see if that's the problem.

    Modeling Spreadsheet wrong behavior?

    According to the docs, it seems that if I create a Spreadsheet (in NX > Tools > Spreadsheet), formulas that I type in the spreadsheet should be two-way translated (from spreadsheet to NX expressions and from NX expressions to spreadsheet). So I tried: [ol 1] In NX, created two parameters (Tools...

    Feature Groups VS Design Groups

    I don't quite get it though. Are Design Groups the "new" Feature Groups, making the latter obsolete?

    WAVE Create Linked Part VS simply using WAVE Geometry Linker

    Toost, I know about the license, as both actions I presented depended on it to work. Without wave engineering license, Create Linked Part and Wave Geometry Linker with Make Context-independent would not work for parts that are outside the assembly. That wasn't my question though. I would like...

    Feature Groups VS Design Groups

    Guys, anyone please? It seems like a simple question, though I still didn't figure it out.

    WAVE Create Linked Part VS simply using WAVE Geometry Linker

    When WAVE Mode is activated, we can right click a component in the Assembly Navigator and choose WAVE > Create Linked Part. Let's call this the "seed" part (which is named "000018 0.2.0.prt" in my case). When the new part is created (let's call it "Linked01.prt"), it has all of the geometry of...

    Customer Default for sketches does not apply

    Thanks for the answers. NX comes with lots of predefined templates though. Is there any way to make it recreate all the default templates based on my customer defaults? Having to recreate them all every time I want to make a change will be very time consuming

    Customer Default for sketches does not apply

    I'm changed the following customer default: Customer Defaults > Sketch > General > Part Settings tab > Reference Curves color I changed it, applied ii and restarted NX. But when I create a new part, the color is the same as the default, it's not changed. Can someone help?

    Feature Groups VS Design Groups

    What are the differences between Feature Groups and Design Groups? Both seem to work like a folder to put features in for better organization of the feature tree. What am I missing?

    NX messing up environment variables characters (language encoding problem?)

    Fixed the problem on my own Thanks for the help. What I did: Instead of using the UGII_ENV_FILE system environment variable, I used the default ugii_env.dat file located in the default NX install folder (%UGII_BASE_DIR%\UGII\ugii_env.dat) and added an #include clause in it pointing to the...

    Toost, tried it, no luck. Hope NX can fix this issue soon, for better internationalization

    NX messing up environment variables characters (language encoding problem?)

    I'm trying to set the UGII_ENV_FILE environment variable to point to a ugii_env.dat file located in the company's server. The path to the file is: \\172.16.17.2\NX FILES\CONFIGURAÇÕES\ugii_env.dat As you can see, it contains special characters like whitespace, Ç and Õ. Then I go to Windows...

    How to make a custom parametric spiral according to dimensions

    cowski and MANox Thanks for your answers, but I think I didn't make myself as clear as I should have. I need these dimensions to be parametric, in the sense I need to be able to control them with some expressions like start_radius, start_angle and final_height As far as I know, Optimization's...

    How to make a custom parametric spiral according to dimensions

    I want to draw a spiral according to the dimensions on the image, but I can't find a way to make it. Key dimensions: - The start point should be at 30° with a start radius of 180mm. - Spiral has 1 revolution (360°) - (This is the hard one) The maximum height point (where the tangent is...

    Best way to define expressions (user vs named expressions)

    John, Thanks for the reply. Both of my examples use logical names though. Which one would you choose?
