Hello Guys,

After numerous configuration issues with Teamcenter we are now at the point where we start testing NX9 in our testing environment.
I noticed some strange behavior with regards to reference sets.

I attached a movie showing the problem...
Basically when I have built a structure with reference sets and add this to a drawing (create new drawing) somehow the reference sets for the Drawing component are screwed-up..
I need to add that the reference set is not only for the drawing but also for any other assembly where this component will be added..

Is this a known bug? Anyone else experienced this?

Not that this helps too much but for a data point...
Using NX 9, I did the exact same thing you showed in the video and pulled over an assembly model into a drawing.
The reference sets, at least from what I remember, default to the model reference set. So even if I set one component to Empty it will show as Model when placed in the drawing.
As for the "Component is Non Geometric" that setting remained and showed as expected in the drawing. If that is changed while in the drawing or assembly it changes in the other file's display as well since it's a model driven setting.

The reference set settings are specific to both the assembly and drawing.
From what I understand the reference sets set within the drawing are saved within the drawing and remain as they are saved.
For the assembly those are based on the load order set within the Assembly Load Options.

If I'm mistaken sorry about that... I'm 3 months into learning NX for the first time :)
