Siemens has noted that NX12 is supported on Win10 and higher. We are about to upgrade from NX9 to NX12 but are still on Windows 7. Has anyone used NX12 with Windows 7, any known issues?
We will hopefully upgrade to Win10 at the end of the year and were going to go to NX11 but there is a good...
I have a large assembly in TC (created with NX) that I wont to export as a JT assembly so people without TC access can view the assembly JT model with just the free JT viewer. The individual JT files are already created in TC under each part Item revision as a dataset.
What's the...
We have a running joke at work rev A is a hole, rev B is a bigger hole and rev C is a slot. Which inspired me to write the below code. I would like a bit of help to make it more robust in what face it selects (ie hole/cylindrical face only) and also allow more options for slot direct other than...
In NX Drafting using either the Tabular note or Parts List command I can change the colour of text and the border of a table cell but is it possible to change/create cell colour shading (ie the area enclosed by the cell border) in a table?
NX8.0.3
Is there a way to hide any thing on a drawing under a sketched area outline, like a circle or rectangle.
The best thing I have found so far is to use the area fill command in drafting to fill a sketched rectangle and then change the colour of the area fill to white. We have set up our colour...
How do you re-link a promoted body that for some reason has broken it's link. The only option seems to be to convert to a linked body, but we want to keep some of the unique features of promote.
NX 7.5.2.5 mp2, TC 8.3
Have come across an issue where our drafting parts list does not show the correct revision for some parts when compared to the ANT. See attached part 16P2053 is shown as rev D in the ANT. If you right click on the part in the ANT and select properties->attributes the attribute DB_PART_REV shows...
I know you cannot open a .prt file in NX6 that was saved in NX7 but what about pattern files or template (seed files) for that matter, that are saved in NX7, can these be used by NX6?
I am guessing it cannot as template and pattern files are .prt files but thought I had better double check...
I use align view overlay point to point to overlay two drafting views on top of each other. This works well, but if I want to move both of the views I have to remember to pre-select both views before dragging to a new location (when the views are overlayed it is not clear that there are two...
The what's new document for NX7.5 does not seem to detail all that is new.
A few new things I have heard of that are not documented are:
Re-attach chamfer dimensions
Attributes have been worked on (not sure what exactly was done)
I'm sure there are many more.
Is there documentation for these...
In NX7 the weld notes were updated to allow a space factor setting to be set. I noted that when opening an old drawing (say NX6 drawing) in NX7.0.0.9 the weld notes would automatically update to the new weld note with the space factor option.
We have now upgraded to NX7.0.1.7 MP1 and now when...
In the modelling application, use the measure distance command and create an associative measurement. Right click on the measurement feature in the PNT and select "Display Dimensions" to show the distance measurement graphically on the model. I now want to hide the display of this distance...
Is it possible to assign a line on a drawing sheet to show on screen but when the sheet is plotted the line is not shown on the printed paper? Maybe there is an attribute I can assign to the line?
I would also like this line to not show up on any other drawing sheet export, ie Printing, PDF...
Is it possible to reset the first feature in the part navigator to zero. Currently our model template has a datum sys as the only feature in the part navigator. For some reason the feature number for this is now 7. If you delete this datum sys and add a new one in the feature number is now 8...
Not sure if this is possible but how do you save an english unit part as a metric part. If it is possible are there any issues with the conversion?
NX 6.0.1.5, TC 2007
I would like to add points and curves to a drafting sheet but all curve and point commands in NX6 creates a sketch. In NX5 you could create curves and points and have the option to create them in a sketch or not. Is this possible in NX6?
I have templates created in NX5 that have curves created...
There are times in a drawing data set (part-dwg1/A) of a master model component (part/A) where we would like to show the component and it's sub-assembly (assm/A) on the drawing. I.e. on the drawing the component is shown as well as the subassembly where it's located.
To do this we add assem/A...
Is it possible to add extra scales to the scale pull down list when creating a new sheet or creating a new view?
i.e
1:1
1:2
1:2.5
1:5
1:10
1:12.5
1:15
1:20
1:25
