    Siemens NX12 Network Wifi issues

    What you describe could be related to bufferbloat. A more accurate test would be to do a test from http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest and see if that is the issue.

    How to select CAEEdge and CAEVertex with NXOpen?

    In Python I would create a function to narrow the selection like this. def SelectCAEObj (): theUI = NXOpen.UI.GetUI()#: :type theUI: NXOpen.UI itemsPicked = 0 message = "pick CAE Object" title = "Selection CAE Object" scope = NXOpen.SelectionSelectionScope.WorkPart...

    Can you make PMI call out a component's DB_PART_DESC?

    Try this <WRef0*0@"attribute name"> for the attribute name put in the name of the attribute that you would like referenced. For DB_PART_DESC you would type in this <WRef0*0@DB_PART_DESC>.

    NX draft body

    You could create a UDF. See attached file. Inputs needed for the UDF are 2 datum csys’s one for the sketch/extrude direction and one for split plane/Draft direction. http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=d846dfe5-069f-4428-9408-d82d2f647b68&file=Hole_With_Draft.prt

    VB.NET To create part attributes

    I did what you are looking for with the “attributePropertiesBuilder” function. I am very new at programing, so there is probably a better way to do this. The sample code below takes the DB_Part_Name and brakes it down into separate attributes. 'Created By Jeremy Shooks 'Create attributes...

    Rotated parts list

    This is from the NX help file. "The UGII_IGNORE_INTERNAL_PLIST environment variable must be set if you want the default parts list to be the one you specified in the Customer Defaults dialog box." When you use it without anything specified anything in the customer default it appears to use the...

    Reliable format for drawing exchange between different CAD systems?

    Catia will import and export CGM file just fine. You could also insert a .jpg or .tiff file into the drawing. The tiff/jpg has a bug when you export the drawing you sometimes get a double image in the area of the tiff/jpg.

    &quot;Export as STEP214 -&gt; Select Objects -&gt; Select All&quot; doesnt give me all the component

    ChuckRi, A trick to get the names to show up into Catia is to turn off time stamp in the part navigator and rename the solid body’s. See the attached picture. http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=33e2d3dd-4f86-46e6-8427-c3d7930ff486&file=NXvsCatia.png

    NX Stress Wizard

    uwam2ie It looks like the change happened with the switch to NX8.5. Unfortunately I’m stuck with stress wizard since we do not have the license for design & simulation.

    NX Stress Wizard

    Does anyone use this? If so do you know how to change the view for safety factor to be the way it was in NX 8. In NX 8.5 and 9 its just duplicating the displacement view.

    Using PMI with Master Model Concept?

    I have done some PMI (3DA) drawings for Fiat. The 3DA stands for 3D Annotated models. The PMI was created in the 3D file not a separate file . In the 3D file you create a new work view for each view that you would have on a 2D drawing and add the GD+T dimensions and notes as needed.
