Anyone know how to configure the new Siemens NX 8.5 Progressive Die Wizard View Manager which is the big "Eye Ball" program?
 
I’m a newbie to NX and PDW.

Since 2000 I’ve been using SWx and Loogopress3 since 2006 and with this my designs shifted to unprecedented level because of the power of software I acquired. Checkout my personal website www.solidCADworks.com for some of my dies.

To explore the other possibilities I decided to move to another company using NX for their die designs and currently on training and trying to understand the software. I’ve already seen the powerful surfacing capability of NX and I hope it will provide me the same or better kind tools that Logopress offered. If not I’ll push to go back to SWx with LP3.
If I’m using Swx to do my Die designs, then I wouldn’t do it without Logopress. Same way I would try PDW to unleash the Die design capabilities.

Hello!
The configuration “View Menager” in PDW is very simple.[bigsmile]
You have to edit file …\Siemens\NX 8.5\STAMPING_TOOLS\pdiewizard\configuration\xml_files\ pdw_view.xml.
First you create duplicate this file.
