Hello. I opened up an assembly this morning, and all of the file names in the assembly navigator have <file name> around them. This is seemingly a new one for me. Load options are As Saved, and Fully Loaded. UGNX2306. Thanks in advance.
Hey everyone. UGNX 1953, I recently have had an issue with a journal file, that exports a BOM Partslist to a TXT file. We then import that TXT file into Excel for your procurement folks. Weve been running this for about 5 years and all of the sudden I am getting errors on executing this...
Hello, I'm currently using NX1953 and just recently I am noticing a sorting problem using partslists or bill of materials. I have my defaults set so that the Assembly navigator sorts Alphnumerically by the part name, its been this setting for years. Normally when I make a drafting view, I...
Morning. OK so here is a new one that 1953 has given me. When we export a drawing sheet as a PDF we name it exactly the same as the UG file name. Our part number convention is "0000.12345.10.prt" We have a series number, a numerical drawing number, and a two digit machine shop code. There...
Hello,
We recently just upgraded from 1899 to 1953. In the 1953 Drafting environment, I am trying to create a break out view using the active sketch view command. Typically I like to use a spline to create a shape around the part I'd like to break out as its usually one entity to select and i...
Hello. I have a template file that has a lineweight setting that is giving me a hard time. When I print a drawing I get one of the extension lines on all linear dimensions shows as a thicker lineweight than the rest of the dimension. I have tried to edit the dimensions lineweights by right...
Good Morning. Recently I have had an issue with UGNX 1899. Prior to this issue, when I hit CTRL F, the modelling view would fit the model to the field of view, no matter if it was a small part, or a large assembly. The same would happen with the HOME and END keys, I would get a zoomed to fit...
Morning everyone. I am having a new to me issue in NX1892. Recently when I make a sketch on a part, and I add dimensions to the sketch, the geometry does not move to the entered dimension number. For example: I make a block, and add four holes, using the sketch environment, I place four...
Morning everyone. My company just got a single seat of Solidworks 2019 for a specific customer project. I have been using UGNX for 12 years, and this is my first run with SW in many years. I have opened the customer models, which is an assembly line. The main assembly is composed of a...
Hello. So my NX11 has just started doing something strange. During a drafting session, I cannot select center marks or center lines with the ordinate dimensions. I can however select these items with the standard rapid demensions. Ordinates will select objects such as hole centers and lines...
Good Morning! I'm using NX11 and for the first time ever the points do not show up in a sketch. prior to today, all manually added points would show up as a "+" and they could be easily selectable for dimensioning. Today, all manually added points are invisible, all lines and other sketch...
Hello,
I have some prints that are native UG that came from Germany. We want to use these prints moving forward, is there a quick way to translate the German notes and text to English? My thought was to copy the German sheet, and paste it back into the drafting environment to keep the views...
Hello,
I am doing some part cleanup and organizing of our libraries. Is there a way to view part attributes in the windows explorer? I have checked the columns available to me in the explorer windows and nothing seems to allow it. I am wondering if there is a way to show this.
Thanks.
Good Morning, We have recently upgraded to NX10 from 8.5, I am having an issue with the balloon when using it for partslist callouts. It seems to add an "extension line", and then I have to drag it around to get the desired location. I want to click on the part in question, such as an edge...
We just loaded NX10 from 8.5.
Is the "allow replacement" option still available? I am loading an old assembly and it wont load a few files that it says are not valid versions. I cannot find the allow replacement option in the load option dialog box.
Thanks.
Good Morning, I am using NX8.5, and this just started happening. When I import a step file, I am getting instances of one of our companies product models being inserted into each component of the step model that I am converting. I worked with this particular product model a few weeks ago, but...
Hello, This is a new one for me. I have a few assembly models that when I drag and drop a component into it, and use constraints to position the part, it goes to where I want, but the constraints seem to just go away, and do not show up in the assembly navigator. Any ideas? Is this perhaps a...
Hey everyone, I am having an issue as to where I cannot see the thumbnail preview of files in an NX window, also in a standard Windows Explorer window, NX files dont allow a preview of the thumbnail. Any ideas? I have to imagine its an issue with NX itself, not with Windows. This was never a...
Hello,
I am looking for a formula to determine how much force is required to press an obect(ie dowel pin) into a hole. I came across one some time ago, but now I cannot find it. I remember vaguely having to use the surface area of the object, coefficient of friction for the material and the...
Is there a way to add a reference note into modeling space....I want to add design information to a model in the instance that if something is changed or set to a specific dimension anyone who opens that model in the future can read the note and know exactly whats going on. Especially if the...
