But is it reasonable that you would have all the tabs enabled at once or that you'd run with that small of a window? Besides, you could create multiple 'Roles', each with it's own set of 'tabs' for when you're running at a smaller than normal window. I used to do that with older versions of NX, having setup a 'Role' for when running NX with a projector so that no toolbar icons would get removed when you went from full resolution down to 1280 x 1024, something which is NOT an issue with NX 9.0 since there are no fixed-length toolbars.

offtopic, but since it's a lively discussion, i'll just ask it here:
JBaker, has the steel framing (standard structural members) been improved in the new version of nx? (i.e. skeleton + library geometry instead of extrude, like the tubing/ wiring)
if not, any idea when? that's quite an important feature when designing support equipment for assembly etc.

loki3000,

I had a discussion with John about this a while ago and he expressed that it was something they were looking at. I was hoping to have seen something by now but alas, no show. Its one feature i can't understand why it hasn't been implemented (plus i cant wait to see how the NX guys do it... it should be a very deep featured frame generating/cutlist creating beast!).

Any further news John?

I can't really answer that as it's not an area that I spend any time with. That being said, there are some new tools specifically being developed for modeling the structural members being created when doing ship design.
