I have been facing the following issue in NX
The two radii are driven by expressions and these expressions are changed by a journal.
Before running journal that changes the radii values

After running journal that changes the radii values

Please suggest a solution to prevent this flipping of the arcs.

PS.I am a newbie on this forum so please excuse any posting errors

Thanks in advance!
 
Hi

Defining radii in sketches is bad practice.
It works much better if you add the radius as a blend on your extruded model.
There you can use the same expression to configure them with your journal.
