Does anyone remember this thread? All I want to do is create a 10º angle. Yet I get 170º or 350º or something.
Good news though! This feature carried over to NX9 and it seems worse!
But the truly awesome thing is I figured out its only because I didn't know how to use NX...
I have a highly complex design that twist, curves, etc.
Let's say its similar to this PC fan http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835233112 but on a much larger scale.
Obviously you would want the blade to twist because that would effect airflow.
You would also not want it...
Ok, to some this is going to seem simple but its driving me nuts... (Yeah it was a short drive)
I am trying to simply do this in NX 7.5.
if diameter = ....then.... sta =
16.0 - 23.99 ....then.... 0.50
24.0 - 29.99 ....then.... 0.75
30.0 - 35.99 ....then.... 1.00
36.0 - 41.99 ....then...
Is it "legal" to call out your secondary dual dimension as "REFERENCE ONLY" ?
If not is there a standard that forces you to use a set amount of decimal places in your dual dimension?
We have metric dimensions that are technically tighter than the English and vice versa that may cause someone...
I am using NX 7.5.
Is there a way to automatically hide (not suppress) the body you are mirroring?
See "Instance Geometry" >> "Hide Original" as an example.
(We have complicated parts that are merely mirrors of each other. I have the mirror body command setup to unsuppress using...
Why are so many companies so scared or unwilling to upgrade NX to the newest version?
Yeah... bugs!!! Scary bugs! [snail] And I'm not saying install it the day it comes out to the market but some companies that are still on NX5 will only upgrade to 7 when 8.5 is out and stable?
Some...

In the above thread, someone stated a desire to have an emergency stop if you will...
I know there is a "Click Stop to interrupt this operation - Stop" dialog box that pops up but what I am looking on my screen, at this very second, is a grayed out Stop button because I...

In the thread above, the topic of autosave was brought up. I get having that having it save over your actual part file is a no go. I wouldn't want that either.
But couldn't nx autosave a temporary file somewhere (windows user folder) of only parts that have been modified...
We are running NX 7.5 & TC8.3 on a 4-tier client.
We run simulations (in native mode) quite often. Soon we will be storing those simulations in TeamCenter. These simulations run well over night and some actually take days.
I am one of those infidels who rarely logs out at night... GASP...
To the Crucial:
I am trying to setup our assembly prints such that when a component gets replaced the attributes (pulled from the master model) update the print as well. I’ve gotten it to initially grab the attributes from the master model but they do not update when a component is replaced...
We have sheet metal parts and want to have multiple parts all made from the same blank part number. How can we do this and still reference the correct blank in the BOM?
We also use rivets that rivet together multiple thicknesses of sheet metal parts but only use one rivet part number. How do...
We are trying to setup our material library to reference materials within the TeamCenter environment. We want to make it such that the material properties are available to everyone and if something changes in the library that it also changes on the part level automatically. Any Suggestions...
How do you setup a title block to update on all prints if original is changed?
We want to have one prt file control all other files that call out that part file so that if we adjust (as an example) the spelling on the original it updates all 3,554 prints that reference the original.
The way we...
We are looking at purchasing a Romer or faro arm.
Does NX have a built in application or plug in that will allow direct "importing" of 3D laser scanner data?
Is it possible to import expressions from Excel and update existing expressions?
For example, lets say we had a model of tire rim already in use but now we want to import pilot, bolt circle, bolt hole dia, number of bolt holes, width, etc.
Thanks all!
Is it possible to import material properties in to NX / TeamCenter without filling out each new material by hand?
I'm looking to import the following materials by their specs.
SAE J1392
SAE J454
ASTM A568
ASTM A536-80
ASTM A48 CLASS 30
SAE J452 306
SAE J430
Does importing the material into...
It may be old school but I want to put a Table on a print but use it as a BOM instead of a "Pats List". There are several parts on this print that we don't have modeled. (Stickers, decals, etc.) The parts list also seems to reorder everything in a way no one here is used to (and change is a...
