    box point 1

    While making a box with 2 diag. Point the first is already picked. I have to manually click "specify point (1)" every time. In older versions (nx3) i could pick 2 point on the fly and keep going. More of a hassle than a problem.

    subtracting non touching solids

    when i subtract 30 taps(coned cylinders) from a solid, and one is not touching the solid, it will still remove the solid. in nx3 if the target didnot touch the tool...the tool would stay and not be removed. in nx7.5 it is still pArt of the "subtract" but there is no "flag" to let me know it...
