Quick question... When i apply the dimension to the left of the ordinate, the resulting dimension shows a negative value ( -3.000). Where's the setting to show the dimension in absolute value (3.000)??? Anyone?

Folks,
Here's one I haven't come across yet... kinda hard to accurately describe so please bear with me. In drafting, when creating a detail view, if you expand into the view one should normally see the geometry of the part including the geometry that falls outside the boundaries of the detail...
Folks,
Anyone know of where / how a non-student type person can get a legal version of NX to learn on? Preferably NX 7.5 (which is the version I'm working on for the foreseeable future...). Any help would be appreciated. I'm mostly interested in the customization / programming aspect; while...
Question of the day: A Custom Item type in Teamcenter v9, call it part A. Open the part, do a save as normal, and the new part is indeed the custom item type. Add part A to a pallete... open the pallete and it immediately prompts you for the new name (we'll call it part B) and the resulting...
Question of the day... When using the 'smart text' for the current sheet on the drawing <W@$SH_SHEET_NUMBER>, the drawings are 'out of order' sequentially in the part navigator under the drawing tab.... (ie sht1, sht3, sht2, sht4, etc) Is it possible to 're-order' sht 2 to appear before sht 3...
Question of the day: (NX 7.5.0.3 and Tc 9.1.2.3) Can you have a palette set up to drag/drop 'items' onto the face of a drawing similar to the old school way of 'file, import' ??? I've played w/a couple of palette files, but I'm not to familiar with them and am not having much luck. I...
Here's one that has me scratching my head. I have a concave surface with a locating barrel removed from it. I need to somehow remove some periphery geometry, but regardless of the method used the resulting geometry is 'filling in' the barrel cavity erroneously. However, if I offset the tool...
We just migrated to NX 8.5.2.3 and I have to admit to being very frustrated at the moment... I have a few questions regarding current and future functionality of the software that I can't seem to find an answer for and am hoping to find the answers here, so...

Question of the day.... Is it possible to CAM program to the "mean" (think even split) of the tolerance value of a surface? ...for example, given a surface height of 1.000 inch and a tolerance value of +.030/-.000, can you program CAM to cut the surface at 1.015? ...and can this idea be...

Does anyone have experience with getting Teamcenter to recognize Vericut meta-data; file extensions .VcProject, .mch, .ctl, .tls, .swp, etc...

Howdies,
I need to open a native assy and assign 2 TC attributes (db_part_no & db_part_rev) by parsing the existing native part name/rev (providing for interactively changing the db attr if I don't like what's suggested). This is in preparation of totally crap legacy files for TC...
Folks,
Is there a way to set up conditional LOVs in Tc? ...where depending on the choice made by the user, different LOVs (attributes) are added without having to create multiply custom item types. I'm trying to simplify the attributes desired by limiting what the user sees...
In otherwords...
Ok... what am I missing? I want to chain some curves and move them, but I can't seem to figure out how to chain the curves from within the move command. So what gives?

Anyone have a clue as to what's going on with: A dialogue box titled "Windows - No Disk" with the following message: 'Exception Processing Message c0000013 Parameters 7c7df5f8 38a099b8 7c7df5f8 7c7df5f8'. My IT guys are as puzzled as I am. The errors occurs when trying to open a file, or any...
I just opened up a part and got an error message:
"Spline Check
WARNING: Splines with Bad Data Detected.
Look for splines with SUSPECT939 attribute."
Anyone run across this before? What does this mean? How does one determine what / which splines are causing the issue? ...a fix?
TIA...

Here's a new one... existing grip routines that have run fine previously are now having 3 periods added to the front of the output file names. We now have to manually remove the dots from the output file names when finished.
Subroutines that...
I've a question or two concerning the capabilities of the teamcenter implementation piece that comes with the license bundles. As background, we can be considered 2 companies, with separate part naming/revision structures for both CAD and CAM files, as follows:

Folks,
It's been a while, and I'm apparently a bit rusty. I'm trying to write a grip that will develop a series of planes (all on z-axis), and generate cross-sections of a user picked sheet body (via ident/). I'm generating the planes, and picking the sheet body ok... but am failing when...
