Quick question for the NX experts. Everyday I start NX, I have to turn on the assemblies module. Is there not a way to turn on a setting somewhere, so that the assemblies module is always on when I start NX?
If it makes any difference, our NX is integrated with Teamcenter.
Many thanks in...
Hi, I am asking this on behalf of a colleague, and was wondering if anyone could help. My colleague is drawing up some very large parts (we are talking squares/cubes in the region of 40000mm), but when using these components in assemblies, he is having real trouble selecting the faces of these...
Hi,
I am currently working with NX 8.5 at a large company in Denmark. I have used NX for a couple of years, and in that time I have used layers to control the visibility of datums, sketches, surfaces etc. Normally, I would use the standard layer catagories already in NX.
Where I am currently...

I am currently creating new drawing templates for my company. I have everything completed, except the style of the parts list.
Helvetica is the font style that we are using, and all text must also be set to 'thin'. However, when I add an assembly to the drawing, the parts list does two...

Hi,
I'm wondering if someone could help. I am using NX 7.5 at present, and the company (like most others) have their own drawing templates they use when creating 2D drawings. Currently, they are working without teamcenter.

Hi all,
I hope someone can help someone who has realised that perhaps, I am a novice when it comes to the correct use of part families :-). The only knowledge I have is what I have been taught over the last three months, but I am in doubt if it is correct.
Is the following correct:
1.When...
Hi all, I was wondering if someone could help.
When adding part families to a parts list (lets say I add 5 parts of a family to an assembly), I would like to have that all part family parts share the same pos number. I achieve showing only one of these parts in the drawing views using...
Hi all, I hope I have posted this in the correct forum.
At my current place of work, I have been using part families more than ever before, and one of my main task is to produce models and drawings of components, where many of which are part family based (I am currently using NX 7.5). These...

Hi,
I am currently playing with the creation of attributes from expressions, so that they can be shown in a parts list on a 2D drawing. This is very new to me, just started playing with this function today.
I'm having no problems in creating the attributes from an expression...
Hi all,
I was wondering if any NX experts may be able to help me with the last piece of the puzzle. I am trying to create a model of a DIN 439 nut (and will use this template to make other nut models), where I fully control the size of the part by the thread size. I have included the part in...

Hi,
I'm quite new to this forum, but even in the short term I've been using it, I have found it incredibly useful.
