    CGM files - interested in knowing if this is an obsolete format

    Thanks all! I would like to see my customers use PDFs, so just making sure there wasn't an ironclad reason to still be using them. PS - i have seen the CGMs get imported into formatted/templated type drawing files so that the drawing can be "edited" manually instead of using a programmatic tool.

    CGM files - interested in knowing if this is an obsolete format

    I have been seeing a lot of CGM files being created for drawing/drafting files in the last few days. Wondering if and where CGMs are being used today. Any thoughts please? (I prefer generating PDFs). Lynn

    Custom Drawing Sheet / PAX file for use in GM TeamCenter NX

    If you are creating drawings for GM Product Engineering and Design, you would use the 11x17 format and tool from the GM Toolkit. Powertrain has different drawing requirements. Other divisions might have other approved processes as well. Lynn Ploss Teamcenter/NX mentor GM Product

    Tips on WAVE-Links and Teamcenter Implementation? (NX 9)

    just wondering what automotive company you are doing work for? At the one I work for, no user defined reference sets are allowed (except in special cases0, which might be why you are having issues with the checker. I don't believe that there is any interaction between WAVE links and reference...

    Would you have changed NX versions or had a patch loaded lately that may have changed your defaults in the Export STEP dialog?

    analysis-simple interference and Information-Part-Part History

    everyone- I believe there was a miscommunication/misunderstanding between "classic Menus" and "Menu" when we were being update trained. :) Thanks!

    analysis-simple interference and Information-Part-Part History

    Anthony - glad to hear you say that - I think there might have been a misunderstanding of the terms classic menus and Menu bar in discussions I have been involved in. Thanks

    I have a drawing file with multiple sheets with views, tables, notes, etc. I have a second file that is very similar and I would like to duplicate several of the sheets in the first file into the second file, so that I don't have to recreate them. The files already exist or I would so a save...

    need to set my default Boolean operation to None

    Sorry, let me rephrase that :). I close my session, then later open a new session with a different part. Will this Option stay at None until I change it to something else and save? Thanks.

    need to set my default Boolean operation to None

    John- This then becomes "sticky"? After I close the part and session and then reopen, this should have stayed at None? Is this dependent on closing NX correctly - File->close All Parts and File_>Exit rather that clicking the X in the upper RH corner? Thanks!

    need to set my default Boolean operation to None

    In NX7.5, in the Extrude command, the Boolean operation defaults to Inferred. I want to override/change that to NONE. I am unable to find where this can be done. Documentation says it can be overridden but doesn't explain how. Thanks.
