NX 7.5 takes too long "Updating objects..." while editting a sketch
In NX 7.5, is there a way to turn off the "Updating objects..., Updating Feature 1, Updating Feature 2, ...etc." while editting a sketch? In my example, a sketch is used to make an extrusion. This part has ~350 features in the part navigator. When I update any sketch, NX will take about 33...- JoeSaw

NX area moment of inertia calc - how do I specify the neutral axis?
In NX 7.5, how do I calculate the area moment of inertia about a specific axis? I've tried 2 methods, and NX does not let me specity the axis the area is revolved around. For example a 2mm by 8mm rectangle has 2 neutral axes, which give 2 very different area moments of inertia. Ix = (2 *...- JoeSaw

Deformable parts are not compatible with other features such as holes, pockets, etc.
The deformable part utility seems great. Except it won't work on parts with holes, or any other features. That limits what you can use it on. I'm designing a plastic part with a simple latch arm that bends. I need to show the latch arm in 2 positions: straight and bent. I think I'll try...- JoeSaw
