Is there a way of re-loading an un-saved modified document without closing down CATIA and re-loading everything in session?

I have recently started a new job back on V5 R18, the last time I used V5 at JLR in the Freestyle workbench I could perform 'Shape modification' operations (such as control points, match surface, and extend) on surfaces and splines and it would directly modify the element. Now when I use any of...
I am currently dealing with wood veneered interior trim components, we would like to see what direction the wood grain ends up once its veneered onto the surface, these are compound surfaces so we need to understand firstly the feasability of veneering the surface and the visual effect of...
Thought I would just give Part Module a try as it could be useful for designing complex mouldings and even fabrications where work is distributed amongst several designers.
I think Ive run into quite a big issue when working with Teamcenter intergation, in that when creating Linked Part Module...
Is there an equivalent in NX to CATIAs 'Global Deformation', whereby multiple surfaces can be manipulated using X-form type interation, ie directly editing UV poles?
I am aware of the Global Deformation and Global Shaping cammands in NX however these seem more suited to toolmaking where...
The addition of Define Regions to the Unite command is extremely useful however it seems to be rather unstable, Im fining more often that the region definitions arent being applied when the model gets updated after modifying upstream (often unrelated) features or parameters, sometimes defining...
Going from NX7.5 at JCB to NX8.5 at Aston Martin the spaceball seems to behave differently in that its not updating the rotation reference to the geometry in view. Im constantly having to set rotation reference when examining components in assemblies, I dont recall having to do that in NX7.5...
CATIA has a function whereby it displays the translation and rotation of a component from absolute also allowing you to edit its position and reset to absolute.
I cant find anything similar in NX which will allow me to quickly reset a component back to absolute in both translation and rotation...
In the freestyle workbench, trying to set a matching constraint between 2 surface edges, after selecting the edges and hitting apply no constraint is created. ~This feature has worked previously, its just stopped yesterday, presumably a temporary error file somewhere? Does anybody use this...
