    Equal areas or equally spaced locations on irregular surfaces

    Hello all, I want to take any irregular surface/face that I choose and either divide it into lets say 12 equal patches of the same area. Or equally useful would be to place 12 objects on the surface/face all equally spaced apart from each other. Does anyone know a method to do this? Or...

    Hello all, I am editing some PMI

    Hello all, I am editing some PMI in NX1965. My example is a PMI Note that was attached to an edge. If I remove the leader and try and select a new edge on the model I cant and the edge filter isnt available any longer only curve is in the list. Is there something I need to do to be able to...

    Combine or Merge Faces for analysis

    They are different surfaces. As a simple example just 3 faces in a solid I wish to make into one with no edges between them. Thanks all.

    Combine or Merge Faces for analysis

    Hello all, It has been a while since I have tried this and I have been requested to combine or merge a small grouping of faces to support analysis on my NX CAD model. I want them to become one face and to lose edges from the originals. Picture 2 flats and a fillet. The result would be one face...

    Component not showing in drawing view

    Hello all, I have a drawing that I am revising. It has details of the current component and is released. We are adding a 2nd component to it that is a little bit different version. My question is that in an ISO view that was previously created I cannot see the new component even though it is...

    Overriding Interpart Expressions

    Hello all, Does anyone know how to create Overriding Interpart Expressions in NX12? I am looking to Suppress by Expression features from a lower level Wave Linked part by using an expression. Essentially to turn off features at an upper level by expression. This used to be possible in NX10 but...

    NX12 Overriding Interpart expressions

    Hello all, I am just beginning to work in NX12. We previously were on NX10. We have been using Overriding Interpart expressions in our models to turn off small features for various reasons at higher levels of assemblies. We could use Suppress by Expression and use it as an Overriding Interpart...

    NX12 Measure command

    Hello all, Quick question. I am just starting on NX12. Trying the new Measure command. Looks great I like the consolidation. There used to be an option in NX10 to create Associative Geometry in results for the measure command. I have use for that where I leverage that geometry to create...

    Subscript and Superscipt in PMI notes

    I have an situation where I would like to type something like the pic attached in a PMI note. We used to be able to use Superscript <H> and Subscript <L> special characters to do this. Is there a trick now in PMI? Thanks all...

    Interpart Expression reporting

    I think we are seeing failures on NX9 legacy Interpart Expressions. Is there a reporting tool that can list all Interpart expressions in an assembly structure? Is there a graphical or other method to show them and flag broken or failed Interpart Expressions in an assembly? What I am looking...
