    Extruding as sheet not body

    Found out what was wrong cowski was right there was one line that was not coincident. 2 lines right on top of each other and one was coincident with one side and the other was coincident with the other side. I didn't realize there were 2 lines there deleted one new coincident constraint and it...

    Extruding as sheet not body

    Ok well I went though every connection point and curve in the structure and made sure everyone was coincident, there were a lot of them not, and still nothing... Is it better to have the setting on infer curves,connected curves, etc... Thanks Myke

    Extruding as sheet not body

    Makes sense but it doesn't sat interfering curves like it normally does when there is a problem. Also wouldn't it not create an outline(sheet extrude) of the sketch I wanted to extrude if there were gaps. Thanks, Myke

    Extruding as sheet not body

    Hi I have never had this problem and all of sudden this is happening on this one part. But I have this very complex drawing I am just wanting to extrude and then subtract from the other body. Unfortunately NX is just extruding it as a sheet and not an actual solid. I did check the extrusion...

    Not allowing me to save

    I got it to work today, I also stressing I could not save anything under a different name. Anything that had to do with saving was not going to work so I replaced the component with a totally irrelevant component and then replaced that component with what I originally had, and well I can save...

    Not allowing me to save

    Well NX is acting up again, big surprise there... Now it wont let me save... it states " A newer version of this part is available since it was loaded in the session" Is there anyway to get around this...I saw one thread discussing it but unfortunatly it just dropped off with no soln nor any...

    Center Of Gravity

    SDETERS- yes it does, so I decided to just use the assemblies> measure distance and record that distance on the draft but I can give an accurate measurement since my model is tilted, is there a way to tilt it around the triad axis. John-I actually read that same post on another thread and thank...

    Center Of Gravity

    Also what may also help is my assembly is a little tilted with respect to the triad axis and I would like to rotate the whole assembly so when I orient the view to "top" I actually see the top. Thanks, Myke

    Center Of Gravity

    Hi, I am trying to find the center of gravity for my assembly I made and I found that if I go to Analysis > Advanced Mass properties> Advanced weight management I could figure out the center of mass But I am a little confused by my findings. I did enter in all the relevant weight and...

    Random Hidden Lines

    Thank you! The Hidden lines with Interference curves worked! I also did try the view tolerance and that didnt seem to do much rather just make the picture clearer. So now I can see the line and have a perfect picture. Thanks! Mike

    Random Hidden Lines

    Hi, I am new to NX and I am currently working with NX6. I have a pretty decent background with many cad systems but I have never seen something like this. Nx likes to do this to me randomly. It may be this line it may be a different line in a different location but lines start just...

    Problems

    OK well I started a new assembly and have to redo all my work. Cause only then can I get the dwg file to show itself on the drafting templates. So what ever go screwed up I couldn't care less about anymore. So this thread is dead and for anyone else who reads this with my problem There is no...

    Problems

    Tomas-I have found that it resides on layer 1 and it states "object dependency in unavailable" Looslib- I have done this, still nothing. Cowshi _ OK I put it on specified layer 1, updated all drawings and still nothing. I am pushing now close to 3 weeks working on this *!#$@? thing, is there...

    Problems

    I guess I should provide a bit more info, I imported a dwg file into an assembly to give reference how big I can make the assembly. When I go into the drafting portion of nx I place a top down view to show that there is room between my dwg imported part and my assembly. But although I see this...

    Problems

    I also did find the reference set and made sure the component I wanna see it in model and it is. So back to square one. Is there anything else I can check or try to do to make this thing visible. Thanks, Mike

    Problems

    OK I did find the show all command tried it out and it is still not visible. Mike

    Problems

    Thanks for the response, I looked to see what reference set I am on and I am on entire part. It doesn't off model, I did make sure i am on global reference set and it didn't do anything I will try it again though if I ever solve the reference sat issue. And where is the show all command...
