    Is there any way to add a comment into your Model History in NX8? I recall being able to do it on legacy versions.

    Regenerate Work View not working in NX 9.0.0.19

    I recently installed NX 9.0.0.19 and have noticed that the Regenerate Work View no longer works. Is this a bug that is being addressed? I'm stuck using Update Display, which only updates the graphics window. Or do I need to adjust a setting somewhere? Rob

    Color face Icon in NX8.5.2.3

    I recently updated NX8.5 to 8.5.2.3. I noticed a new icon called color face on the Synchronous modelling toolbar. Sometimes when I open NX it is there, other times it is not. I've tried a command find on it but to no avail....I'd like to use this feature. Is there a way to get full time use? Rob
