I am trying to make a basic User Defined Feature that measures the angle of two lines. I am able to make the UDF but I cannot get the measurement angle to be included in on it. Is there away that I can get this angle to be put in with the UDF?
I am trying to do to bevel gears meshing with movement in Unigraphics NX3. I'm starting out with doing 2 cylinders with an angled edge to get my diameters right etc. My boss wants to see it in motion. We don't have the motion license, but I can still do the vary constraints and it will move...
I am using UG NX3 and my company uses .cgm files when we realease drawings. How do create a multipage .cgm file? I know that it can be done because we receive them that way from our suppliers.
Is there anyway that you can do an update on a drawing that uses a saved view? For example I create a view in Modeler. Go to drawing insert that view. Then I decide it's not the right angle for the view so change the view and save it over the previous one. Now when I go back to the drawing I...
I am currently using Unigraphics NX3 and am having difficulty with missing lines in views of my drawings. Occasionally when I put a view in it is missing lines that should be there to show an edge. I have tried messing around with the view settings (extracted edges, UV Grid, Virtual...
Does anyone know of anywhere that I download a third party program for Unigraphics NX3 for free? I am looking for something that attaches custom symbols to dimensions, I have figured out how to create the custom symbol, it's just not associated with the dimension. Instead it is it's own free...
I have very basic question for you guys. I am creating a internal metric gear with a Diametral Pitch of 19, number of teeth is 16, and Pressure angle of 37.5. I have all the numbers crunched I just don't have any direction of how to draw the profile of the teeth. I can't figure out the flank...
Can anyone help me find some of the settings for colors? I know that you go to Preferences->Visualizations, but I don't know from there. For example, I am looking to change the color of a reference line in a sketch from gray to yellow. Or the color that dimensions are displayed in sketcher...
Is there an easy way to make an involute curve for a gear tooth? I am having one heck of a time figuring out formulas for a gear tooth in metric. Does anyone have the formulas in a file that they could send me? Also whats the easiest way to create this in UG NX2?
Thanks for the help.
Is there a way to use a type of "construction" line in UG NX2? I have just started using it and I was working on Pro-E Wildfire 2 where you use a sketcher with added commands (extrude, revolve, sweep, etc.). In Wildfire you can use construction lines in your sketches so that you have something...
I have a question about hole notes. I would like to change the default format that Wildfire 2 puts hole notes in. I know that you have to change it in the .hol files, but I don't know what to put in there. Also is there a config option that I need to change in order for it to read it correctly...
Does anyone know where I can get a good tutorial on setting up start parts, drawing formats, config.pro file changes, any formatting (line weight, line type, text format, etc.)?
Thanks
I know this may seem like a primitive question. But how do I alter the default text height along with some of the other dimensions that are in the drawing_units option? I can't find the option to do any alterations to it. Or is there an much easier way to do it that alter the config file...
How do I change the format of a thread note callout? I looked in the help guide, and it said that you have to change it in the callout_not configuration. But I didn't see a option for that in the config. options. Is there any easier way to do this or am I just missing the option?
Thanks,
Can anyone give me a good basic description of what a parameter is? How it is used? How relations and Parameters are related? I am looking into using them for one of my class projects, but I can't find any good resources telling me about how to use them.
Thanks for the help.
Is there a tutorial anywhere that I can get to see the easiest way to create start parts and edit parameters? Because I have not used parameters at all and it seems that they are the basis for setting up everything to do with drawing formats, which is what I am looking for.
How do I make a format so that it pulls the user name, date, filename straight from the computer? As opposed to putting notes in the drawing everytime?
Thanks
I have read about several people being able to make a purge mapkey. Which takes all the previous versions of a file and purges them into one so that it cleans up the number of files that you have. But I don't know how to do it. Can anyone give some instructions on how to do it?
thanks for the help
I am looking for some help when creating mapkeys in Pro-E Wildfire 2. I want to make a mapkey that fixes the saved views once I edit one. The place that I worked had written a program that automatically did it for them once the clicked an icon. I was just wondering if I could create a mapkey...
