    Ya, I saw that and it didn't work. Had to plug in another monitor and sure enough the windows were still on there. Another stupid Teamcenter glitch that should've been figured out by now.

    Missing Teamcenter Window

    Hey guys, I'm trying to edit a part's properties in Teamcenter and the window that used to pop up to edit them isn't appearing anymore. I recently disconnected one of my monitors and feel this might have caused an issue. I know there is an option in NX called "reset window position", is there...

    Cannot Delete Part in Teamcenter

    SDETERS that doesn't truly delete the part. cowski, thanks, I used the relation browser (is that the correct way) to see if it was used anywhere else. Although it wasn't, the delete icon suddenly wasn't grey'd out anymore. I think this might be a glitchy feature in teamcenter? It seems to...

    Cuba, excuse my ignorance, but what is a VAR? Is TCRename a tool in Teamcenter?

    Table Borders

    I'm having a problem with adjusting the table border of a row/cell. Whenever I try to change the border (to Top for example), it always reverts back to All when I hit apply. Is there some setting or rule I'm missing? Thanks, Chris NX 7.5

    Export/Import All Settings

    Thanks everyone for your help. Just for future reference the location of the user.mtx file in XP is: C:\Documents and Settings\"user name"\Local Settings\Application Data\Unigraphics Solutions\"NX version" The Local Settings folder may be hidden, so be careful of that.

    Export/Import All Settings

    Thanks John, does exporting customer defaults also export keyboard shortcuts or do I have to do that some other way?

    Export/Import All Settings

    Hi guys, Getting a new computer at work soon and and I was wondering if there is a way to export all settings in NX. I know you can export the customer defaults, but is there something that will export stuff such as your menu locations and things like that? Thanks, Chris

    Rename part while running NX in Teamcenter

    Might be a dumb questions, but as the title states, is there a way to change the name of a part while working in NX on Teamcenter. The way we are currently changing part files is editing the parts properties in Teamcenter, but I was just wondering of there was a method better than that. Thanks...

    Check In / Check out Teamcenter

    Thanks Jurgen, That was the answer that I was looking for initially. Looks like Teamcenter cant really be the cause of the slow load times. Seems like this is already a big issue: http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=316259 Guess its just something we'll have to deal with for awhile.

    Check In / Check out Teamcenter

    Nevermind, I was thinking that was a limit, but it looks like it just reports how much memory NX has used in the session? Looks like a call to GTAC is in order

    Check In / Check out Teamcenter

    Ben, hopefully this is the issue, that would be awesome. How much memory do you recommend allocating?
