    How was your switch FROM I-deas TO NX

    I'd like to hear everyone's (horror?) stories about how they switched from I-deas to NX. Example questions that i'm interested in: Did you start from TDM? How many I-deas users were there? Did you go to TCII, and then content migration manager? What version of I-deas and what version of...

    What is the best way to get I-deas .SYM into NX6?

    What is the best way to get I-deas .SYM on my native hard drive into NX6? Right now I believe it is by using export/import .dxf files. Side Note: Why is there no "All file types" when I File->Open? This conversion from I-deas to NX6 is such a giant pain in the butt. Thanks, FR

    NX 6 drafting holes missing.

    I'm Currently working with NX 6.0.2.8 . We went away for the weekend and came back to find that some holes are missing from a drawing. Nothing is suppressed, reference sets are all correct, the holes exist in the 3D model, AND the centerlines are still there. What’s even weirder is that when...

    Total Savings for I-Deas to NX 6.0 Switch

    I'm trying to put a dollar value on how much money we will save by switching from I-Deas to NX 6. We do much of our work with sheet metal, WITHOUT the sheet metal package in I-Deas. I'll provide more detail as people start replying. Thoughts? Personal experiences? Thanks, Frank

    Hey all, I have most my of my 3D modeling experience in SolidWorks, but recently had to pick up I-deas. Is there a way to create keyboard shortcuts for various commands? Ex. Ctrl+7 = Isometric view? Thanks
