I am trying to have the default directory of a new or save-as part be set to the current directory of the work part.
I see there is a setting in Customer Defaults-->General--Directories to set this to a location, but I want this to be a variable setting (I want to change it through NXOpen)...
Here is a journal to edit a few attributes using a windows form. I created this because the new attribute editor is cumbersome.
Option Strict Off

Imports NXOpen.UF
Module Module1
Private _formTitle As String = ""
Public ReadOnly Property FormTitle() As...
Yes, I agree that the title sounds like this should be an easy question, but it has left me confused.
I have two notes, one from a migrated drawing from I-DEAS (migrated with CMM) and another one created inside NX. The issues is that when I insert a user defined symbol which has anchors in...
I have the same version and MP of NX installed on two different machines. You would think the customer default options would be the same, however they are not. How is this possible? Is there a way to hide customer default options? If so where/how is this done. See the attached picture for...
Here is a journal I wrote that will flip the arrow placement of a dimension. I found it a little tedious to have to go under style and have to do it manually so I created this journal and created a short cut to it. Hope you find it helpful. Tested on NX8.5, but should work on all versions...
When I open and extract a JT file in NX8.5 it shows a single body "JT_BODY(0)". But this file consists of many seperate sheets. I can export the file to a STP and then reimport and then I can see the separate sheets, but is this possible to do without exporting and reimporting.
Essentially...
If you undock the assembly navigator is it possible to change the display setting such that it does not become transparent when the cursor is not over the dialog?

Does anyone have any experience with inserting a parts list from a template with a journal/nxopen? GTAC doesn't seem to have any information. I have been playing with this on and off for several months with no success. I am using NX8.5

I have been trying to insert a parts list in NX8.5 Managed from a template, but have been unsuccessful. It seems like the journal is pulling the parts list but then not actually displaying it. The mapping of the UF functions are still very new to me and I cannot find any help on the UGAnswer...
Hello,
I am wanting to display information to a user when executing a journal/NXOpen application without using the Information Window or Pop-ups. I want to utilize the "bar" where progress / selection manager display information to display text throughout a program. I cannot find this...
I have read all the threads on exporting a DXF with a journal and have been successful in implementing it. However, I would like for the DXF file after it has been created with the journal to be imported to Teamcenter as well. I thought I was going down the right road with this:
This is in...
Hello,
It seems that you should be able to edit attributes in the assembly navigator by just double clicking the field instead of right-clicking the part --> properties --> attributes.
Is it possible to send it to the "spreadsheet" and then save it back to NX, similiar to when you create part...
Hello,
I am pretty new to nx journaling, but I have 90% of the functionality of this one that I want. I want this journal to run recursively run through an assembly and move objects to predefined layers as well as then change the child components to Model reference set. So far I have been able...
Hello,
First of all I would like to say I have read all the post where people are trying to create assembly level reference sets. This is NOT what I am trying to do. I would like to create a journal that makes every child part of an assembly the 'Model' reference set to save on load time. We...
I am trying to edit the ideas_simplex character "~" and from what I have read I will need "FontFactory", but I cannot find FontFactory anywhere. John Baker had uploaded it once and it is no longer available. Can someone please upload it.
Thanks!

set TC_ROOT=C:\PLM\Teamcenter\TC83\TCRE
set TC_DATA=???????????????
rem set environment variables for UGNX

Hello,
I am using NX7.5 and I want my Model Template file to create solid features in random colors. It would be nice if the color remained the same for each part file. This way assemblies will have children that are different colors and not the same greyish default NX color. I am new to any...
I am using NX 7.5 I want a user difined diameter symbol in our company's drafting standard but there is appears to not be an option for this in customer defaults or drafting standard. There is the option in drafting standards once inside the drawing file, but this does not seem to be the best...
Hello,
I am using NX 7.5 and TC8. I would like to place our company's customer defaults and drafting standard files (.dpv) on TC.
Our ugii_env.dat file reads:
