    Deformed Rivet = square peg with a round hole

    Has any one found a way to create a rivet that can be deformed into a mushroom shape? It could be the weather this morning but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to constrain/control the sketch that is flat in the purchased form into a part that is mushroom shaped. It feels like I'm trying...

    NX 7.5 Any way to places views of a model at different time-stamps on drawing

    I think I know the answer = no..... but just wondering is there any way to places views of a model at different time-stamps on drawing or into an assembly? Kinda like reference sets but with time stamps of the same body? Currently the only way I found to do this to take extracted bodies and...

    UGmaster/UGpart check in NXopen vb.net

    Is there a way to check if the file is a UGmaster or a UGpart in NXopen vb.net (NX7.5)? Reason being is that I created a quick program that runs off the part callbacks (Save, SaveAs) that will populate attributes but I only want them created in the UGmaster. (They then get mapped to the...

    Going a while back (NX2 or 4), there was a user abort short cut... in my hand written notes I have it as Ctrl + Shift + L (who knows if this was custom or not) Does this still exist? Did it ever exist?? If it does, whats the short cut? Here's why I wanted it, placing a view of a large assy...

    Support ER for the ability to sort/reorder Ref sets

    Call GTAC and reference ER 6706564 if you would like to have the ability to sort/reorder added reference sets...currently you have to add them in the order you want = not cool if you have a large list

    I would like to be able to create folders in Teamcenter while creating items through an NXopen journal. Is there a way using NXopen.net (vb) to create a folder if the default folder doesn't exist?

    NX-open.net (vb) - Block Styler Set List vs Tree List

    Does any one have a good example of a Set List within a Block Styler in vb? The reason I ask is because there is a great example of the tree list in the samples folder but I do not see anything for the set list. The tree list appears to have everything I need but it may be over kill. What I'm...

    Sketch - Pattern Curves

    Quick question about the Pattern Curves in sketch... Whats the easiest way to remove the patterned curves if you no longer want them? All I see is the ability to delete individual curves but not as a group. The problem I'm having is that when going back to a sketch that used pattern curves there...

    Sheet Metal - is there away to roll or bend 360 degs

    Is there away to roll sheetmetal in NX?? We have a lot of parts that we will get as a flat sheet stock...then we roll it 360 degs and weld it to create a tube. I have tried (not that hard to be honest) to get the flat stock to bend 360 degs but with no luck. Any tips or advice would be greatly...

    Any thoughts on NX - CMM Inspection

    My company is looking at getting a few seats of the NX CMM inspection. We currently use NX for CAD/CAM and thought that the CMM application would be a perfect fit because it can run off of PMI and its offline capabilities,(don't have to program on the inspection machine itself). I was wondering...

    NX 8 Borders recreates itself when incrementing sheet rev

    NX 8's borders and zones is cool for the getting zone locations but the automatic border creation needs to have its own line color/width and annotation preferences. The reason I say this is because it is currently based off of the Object --> line color/width and the annotation alignment is based...

    Updating to Boders and Zones from drawing templates with patterns

    Been working on updating my templates with the new NX 8 borders and zones. The new documentation is really good but created this doc a supplement for when I go back and finish the rest of my templates and figured I would share for those of you going to update your templates. This is in no way...

    NX 8 Boarders and zones use sheet zone grid

    When using sheet zone grid, should the grid be limited to only the sheet size or is it supposed to be infinite and just the size of the grid spacing match the sheet grid size? The reason I ask is because in the documentation it appears to end at the end of the sheet

    FYI: NX 7.5.4.4 MP 4 with TC - More than 32 character glitch

    Just as an FYI the new MP 4 for NX 7.5.4.4 Seems to glitch with files sizes more than 32 characters in Teamcenter when using the master model method. When you open up the drawing specification file it gives an error that the file name is not valid for the master model. Its strange because you...
