    Embedded Sketch Question

    Just moved to NX 1953 from NX 12. Previously, I was able to right mouse click on features with embedded sketches and pick Edit Parameters and the sketch dimensions would appear without going into the sketch. I no longer see this in NX 1953. Is this functionality gone? Thank you,

    Points and curves won't appear in drawing views.

    Using NX9 I created a point and a line (using Basic Curves)on the modeling side of my drawing Dataset. When I flip to the drawing side, the point and line do not appear in any existing drawing views. This is not Layer or View Dependent issue. I've seen this before. This is a...

    Leader termination point

    Using NX9 Sometimes when adding a Note, Finish Symbol, etc to a drawing, NX will allow me to select anywhere on a Dimension Extension Line for my leader termination point (my preference). Other times, when I try to select a Dimension Extension Line for my leader termination point, it snaps to...

    Load Options (All components vs Structure only)

    I'm using NX 9. What is the difference between opening an assembly with Load Options set to "All COMPONENTS" vs "STRUCTURE ONLY" and then opening the entire assembly in the ASSEMBLY NAVIGATOR? Thanks

    Deform User Expression

    Using NX 10. I create a model with a User Defined Expression which is used by a three different sketches. It works pretty good. If I change the value of the Expression, the model updates. Is there an option in Define Deformable Part, to made the User Defined Expressions Deformable? In the...

    Associated sketches

    Using NX10. I have a very simple model with three features. The first is a simple extruded rectangle with an embedded sketch. The other two features are simple extruded shapes subtracted from the first. The subtracted excursions have nothing to do with each other, but for some reason the...

    Dissociated dimensions

    Using NX 10.0.3.5. I made a change to an existing drawing yesterday, and before I started, I noticed all the dimensions were dissociated. So, I reassociated all the dimension to the correct solid edges. However, when I opened up the drawing this morning all the dimensions were dissociated...

    Leader termination point

    NX 10.0.3.5 Is it possible to associate a leader termination point to a drafting Center Mark or 2D Centerline. Please see the attachment....Thanks,http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=e549bfac-78a6-4f38-ba77-a6bc97f8247f&file=TERMINATION_POINT.jpg

    Layering components

    NX 10.0.3.5 I added components of an assembly to various invisible layers, saved the assembly, and closed everything. Now, when I open the assembly and components, the layers containing the components become visible. Is there a setting to prevent this?....Thanks

    Sketcher Question

    NX 7.5.5.4 I'm working in small assembly of about 10 components. Usually, when I want to make a quick change to a component, I'll make the component the work part, right mouse click on the feature and select "edit parameters". The embedded sketch dimensions appear and I change the desired...

    Sketch Units of Measurement

    NX 7.5.5.4 I just finished converting several files from inches to millimeters using convert program in the command prompt window (not fun). Now when I go to edit a sketch in the newly converted files I notice that the sketch dimensions show up in millimeters but when I select the sketch...

    Drawing Dimensions Won't Delete

    NX 7.5.5.4 I'm trying to delete a couple of dissociated dimensions from an existing drawing with no luck (see attached jpg). Apparently these are inherited PMI dimensions? We don't normally use PMI diminsioning here so I'm unfamiliar with...

    Note....Question Mark

    NX7.5.5.4.........I need to add a question mark in a note, but the question mark in the Note Formatting box creates something other than a quetion mark (see the attached JPEG). How do I get a question mark on my...

    Deform - Sweep Along a Guide

    I'm currently using NX 7.5.5.4. I have a part created using Sweep Along a Guide. I would like to make the part deformable (Define Deformable Part)in such a way that when I deform the part in the assembly, all I need is a Guide for the Sweep. Currently, the only success that I've had is by...

    Customer Default for Detail View Boundary

    Using NX 7.5. After I create a Detail View in drafting, I have to right mouse click the Detail View Boundary to change the View Boundary Style to the checker preferences, if I can remember(long dashes & thick). Where is this in the customer defaults?....Thanks

    BOM View Dataset (Assembly Structure)

    Teamcenter 8 and NX 7.5 At my current employer, we use the BOM View Dataset to fill out the drawing BOM contained in the UG Part Dataset (Drawing). We create the UG assembly in the UG Master Dataset by adding the required UG component part files. After saving the UG assembly, we open up the...

    Part does not show up in drawing view

    I'm using NX 7.5.5.4. I have a master model drawing with some existing views. In the corresponding master model part assembly (it consists of about 25 components) I created a couple bodies (not components) but they do not show up in the drawing views when I go back to my drawing. The new...

    TC Visualization Mockup - Missing Parts

    TC Visualization Mockup 8.3 Opened up an assembly but some of the parts are not showing upor are missing. I checked and all the parts are open and nothing seems to be translucent. I openned the same assembly in UG and everything is fine....Thanks

    Exporting JT File from massive assembly

    Using NX 7.5. I have a VERY large UG assembly that I want to export into a single JT file. Can this be done without openning the entire UG assembly? If so, how?.....Thanks
