    How to create Radial Section Cut on NX Drawing

    Ok Thanks, You could look for a command called "legacy Section" and try to create this view in a model view. But, I do not think this will work without having the PMI License, but you could try. If this works, you could create this "curve section" and then process this view down into your 2D...

    NX Drafting : Impossible to use "I" as label

    You will need to reload your Changes into your 2D drawing. Try going to Menu Preferences, and drafting. Reload the Customer defaults, since you made this change. Then try creating your view.

    Model Items Selectable in Drafting View?

    If you double-click the view and go to "Common" "Configuration." is 'Snap Shot' under the lock method turned on? Just a quick thought on this.

    composite tolerance at lmc : is it nonsense?

    "We apply Least Material Condition (LMC) to castings to provide the supplier with additional tolerance for bores that require machining. Since our priority is Maximum Material Condition (MMC) to avoid non-cleanup on bores, a smaller bore ensures more cleanup. Therefore, we allow the position to...

    NX 2212: Subtraction error.......

    It almost looks like you have two solid bodies. Try using delete body and see how many Solid Bodies you have. Kind of cool issue. ugh.

    NX2312 Sketcher and Drafting - Approximate Dimension Symbol

    Toost is correct, once you finish the sketch in the drafting, the symbol should go away. I dislike how these dimensions behave so differently in the drafting application vs the older sketcher. But they should go away once you finish the sketch and pan around.

    NX 2212 - Sheets from curves..............

    If the curves are already there, you could use N sided surface. Or you could also use Fill surface also. A couple other options if the curves already exist.

    Sketch dimension shown on drawing..............

    You will need to turn it to a PMI dimension, then I think you can. If you right click on the dimension, turn it to PMI. Then you can process this down into your 2D drawings. There will be some switches in your 2d drawing that you need click on. Double click your 2D drawing border, then go to...

    Exploded Views is for ISO assembly type drawings, This needs to be done at the drawing level. Arrangements are for showing different assembly orientations or different options to an assembly. For example, imagine an air cylinder. In one arrangement, the cylinder is retracted, and in the other...

    NX assembly exploded view vs NX arrangements.....

    We prefer to use arrangements a lot, especially for exploded views. We have many arrangements in our assemblies so this method works well for us. For what it is worth.
