Ok this is going to be a little long, I apologize up front.
We are newish to UG NX (running NX 3 & TeamCenter), We are transitioning from SoildWorks. I have built an enormous number of software tools to extract data and information from SolidWorks and manipulate it and collate it. The same...
I need to create a hole that appears only at the assembly level that intersects multiple parts. The idea being a "drill upon assembly" process. How is this accomplhished (if it can be) in NX2?
TIA

Want to change the background of new parts to plain (not graduated) and to be white. I assume the ug_english.def file. What lines need to be changed?
TIA

Trying to get my head around Ref Sets and Categories and how they are applied. Here is my current paradigm: In Solidworks you can create "configurations" in parts or assemblies. In parts you could create a config for the purposes of having different size bolts, i.e. lengths, dia's, etc. I see...
Have studied cloning and the refernces to it in this forum. Not sure how it works but here is what I want to do:
Open an assembly and then save it and all its children (to the bottom of the assembly tree) to another directory with the same names across the board. I know about the SolidNX...
I have a very sophisticated Excel application that utilizes list boxes, common dialogs, etc. The result is it has a series of references to various dll's.Such as VB for Applications,Excel 10.0 Object Lib, OLE Automation, Office 10. Lib, MS Shell Controls and Automation. When I run this sheet on...
Hi,
I'm back with more questions about the VB.NET API for UGNX 3. It is becoming apparent that this API set is not in wide spread use. If anyone has used this I would like to get some info(e-mail, phone. UG is dragging their heels getting us a demo of the API toolset. It sounds like it had less...
New to UG NX. Took the online course and the Design course. How do you constrain a sketch line to be colinear with a cylinders edge (Silhouette edge) in a sketch. After entering the constraints mode to add the constraint I cannot pick the edge of the model. Do I need to convert the edge?

Can anyone tell me when and how you would use the I,J,K values found in the Vector Constructor dialog from the extruded body function?

I am not a UG user currently but the company is going to move onto NX soon. I was told by a sales rep in July 2003 that this coming Oct UG would announce a full API set that will work with VB.Net. Has anyone else heard anything to this effect. I am skeptical since UG still supports UNIX and...
I have an interesting one and if you have a better aproach to the problem I would love to hear it. Here is the problem I am having:
I have a large VBA worksheet that opens a text file, then a template xls workbook (with macros already in it) I then copy all the contents of the text file to the...
Hi,
I am trying to get a snippet of code for VBA that will utilize the Component2.GetModelDoc call. I need to modify/add custom properties of objects without making the actual object active or activated on the screen (it is in memory but not visible). I don't want to use the ActivatePart call...
Folks,
Somewhat of a philosophical question.
Since Custom Property names are case sensitive regarding capture via VB &
VBA does anyone have a nice clean way of "looking past" the case of a
property to grab the value regardless of how it was defined originally
(example: Cost, cost...
All you clever systems folks out there:
When using the SW API call (GetPathName) it returns the mapped drive for that SW session, on that machine. Is there any way (perhaps subclassing via Windows API) to return the UNC path such that if the data extracted is used elsewhere on the same network...
