    Selection intent pop-up NX7.5

    Is there a way to disable the curser pop-up for selection intent in NX7.5? It is constantly in my way, and I have gotten used to flicking my mouse between clicks to throw it off into blank space. Ron Dawson Manufacturing Engineer Ducommun AeroStructures-Parsons...

    NX4-5 ISV G98/G99 Problem

    When setting rtrcto Auto/None in a drilling operation I get the same results running machine simulations. Both act as G99 and look to the minimum clearance in the operation which is .100 by default. My post puts out the G98 which looks to the clearance plane and allows for clearing of clamps...

    Slower surface area generation time from NX2-NX4 solution?

    Simple surfaces that can be generated in mere seconds using NX2 are taking upwards of a minute to re-generate in NX4. I'm talking about the exact same surface and tool. Is there some sort of collision check turned on by default or assistant mode I need to turn off? Our production in the...

    Face emphasis vs edge NX2-NX4

    Is there a way to change the curser selection mode back to curve/ edge of NX2 vs the face orientated one in NX4? Picking objects is harder/slower now than before. I have tryed changing the intent to single curve, but I'm still not getting the previous results. Ron Dawson Manufacturing Engineer...

    Multiple holes(non instanced) in NX4?

    I'm stuck in NX2 because of company procedures, and I'm curious if NX4 has implemented the ability to make multiple holes at once, much like subtracting cylinders. I've made atleast 3 requests for this feature since V15, and I wonder if they have ever gotten around to it.

    NX2 export moving absolute postion problem

    Hello, I have a reoccuring and repeatable problem exporting iges/step/part files. It will end up in a random spot if I haven't closed and restarted UG in the last hour or so. Once I do it works like it should. If this isn't a problem with the software , then what hardware could cause this. I'm...
