Yes, that it is expected if the body is being used for all your operations. The purpose is so affected operations will update automatically, such as for the size or location for features. Other purposes for this is rest machining, clearance moves updating correctly and cutting simulation...
What is your hardware setup? I have seen some lagging with various tasks and I typically use current, mid-range Dell Xeon Precision workstations. Performance is decent but NX loves to use resources. Decent processors and graphic cards should be used and I do not recommend running NX on...
After measuring you need to expand the results window to the right by clicking anywhere on the right end bar and you will see the buttons for creating non-associative geometry. By the way in case you haven't used it much, when using measure for things like extrude and offset distance you need...
Did you try a Z-level Profile operation with a bull-nosed tool? Also, you could turn on optimized depth cuts so the finish is nice and also turn on cut between levels using a step over of 50% of the tool flat or less. If you select your top faces as cut area geometry, you can extend them using...
There are some Visualization settings that affect how your model looks but the first thing I would look at before you change any of those settings is your load options preferences. The default Lightweight options are too Lightweight for the average user IMO and furthermore Update Display and...

I verified I am using the 64 bit version, thank you!
@Cowski
Your full path recommendation did the trick! I wouldn't think that a version folder in a path would be good for software design but oh well. By the way i did not use a back slash on the end of the path.

One of our NX 12 workstations, which is running 12.0.2, locks up when entering the drafting application. Most often it happens when the file was saved in drafting, and since we have the default to open prt files in the state when last saved, NX will lock up when opening the prt file and trying...
I am planning to install series 1926 docs but first I need to install HelpServer.1.0.5. When running the exe it returns the error "Please check you have installed the correct version of java in JAVA_HOME as a SYSTEM variable and that it is available".
I currently have Java version 8 build 261...
Wow, version 10 is going way back there and I'm struggling a bit trying to recall what it was like back in v10. ( I started using UG in 9 or 10)
Is it saving the actual CL path and/or cut regions? In fixed contouring you can use CLSF data for a drive method but then again why save the path...
Do you see any activity in your status bar?
Info can scroll through quickly but can you see any messages?
Any feature updating happening?
Are you seeing anything out of the ordinary in your log file?
Is your MemoryDialog.dlx file becaoming huge?

In case you have not heard the news of the new AMD Threadripper Pro processor...
[bigsmile]
Threadripper Pro to take on Xeon with 12,16,32 or 64 cores!

In addition to cowski's suggestion, I recommend turning it back to off after you have made your necessary customizations to prevent accidentally saving unintentional changes.

Dani,
I think Dell has had a deep partnership with Intel for a long so perhaps there are contractual reasons for them to stay with Xeons for their Precision workstations. The last time I checked I was able to specify an AMD processor for a desktop computer although it was not with the latest...
Hello,
Much of the information is in the What's New documentation for every version and I agree this is an area which is lacking in the docs. Even the Find Default search function in Customer Preferences does not reveal these important settings. As mentioned earlier there are some design...
Hello,
There is a lot of SMP and parallel processing in NX CAM. However there is still some single threaded processing so you will have to balance your decision between core speed and core count.
Z-level and contour operations use both single and multi threading.
Gouge check is multi threaded...
