Has anyone found an efficient/correct way to use reuse parts in other reuse parts to create reuse assemblies? Some of the reuse parts are simple assemblies themselves. I have found that for the Part Name Management dialog/settings to work all the reuse parts that are included in the assembly...
I am trying to create a formula in expressions to calculate the height of a tube given the outer radius, the inner radius and a volume desired. I keep getting syntax errors. The radii and the volume have there own expression establishing there values.
Thanks, Fred
I was curious how much time other peoples computers takes to open some menus, namely the customer defaults, file properties or file/new. I'm talking about when I have an empty file. On my machine it takes 1.5 to almost 2 seconds just to open these menus. I'm working in NX8.5 right now. Am I...
I am trying to make a custom command so that when i start the fillet/chamfer command it invokes the calculator inside of the radius/distance part of the command so that i can type in a value to get a metric result (3/25.4)....I have made custom value fillet/chamfer commands, but i cannot seem to...
How do I create custom Chamfer commands with different values. For instance I want a chamfer command for a 1/16” , 1/8”, 3/16”, and 1/4" I would prefer to have separate icons for each size. I'm having trouble with the exact syntax.

My NX CAD software is running on a Dell Precision T5500. I'm running NX 7.5, 8.0, 8.5 and 9.0 on this machine. I also own a Dell M4600 Precision Laptop. I need to be able to run at least NX8.5 on this laptop while I'm traveling. I already installed the LMTOOL and NX8.5 base and docs on the...
If I install NX 8.5 (64bit) on a Windows 7 (64 bit) machine that has excel (32 bit) what functionality will I lose with NX? Will I still be able to open and translate files? Will I only lose the ability to use excel INSIDE NX?
I will be traveling and need to share my NX license on a laptop...
I have a customer that is using Bobcad V24 to program some 3d files I provided him in Unigraphics V8.0. He is having trouble programming the
geometry because there are holes in some of the 3d surfaces once he imports it. I am providing step files. I just want to cover things on my
end. Is there...
After adding components to a part I am unable to use the assembly constraints to move them, although, I AM able to use "Move Component" to dynamically (or all other motion options) to transform them....EXCEPT the Transform --> by constraints is greyed out. Why would that be?

Is this command capable of creating this entire flange, even with the rectangular windows thru the flange. I am beginning to think not. It appears I need to do this in pieces.

Has anyone had the problem when a component or components will not update in an assembly even after using the 'Tools-->Update-->Update for External Change' and a 'Tools-->Update-->Interpart Update-->Update All'...then doing a save all? I then reopen the assembly and the same component or...
I know there is a way, but I need some help on setting this up...I need to use the 2d Exchange translator to batch translate a number of files in a folder into dwg/dxf. The files in this folder are all master drafting files, so the actual models reside elsewhere. I need the batch to update the...
When using a part attribute that has a data type of "number" and dimesionality of "unitless" units of "unitless" and I then try display this in an identification symbol. It displays with 10 zeros following it. I want it to display the whole number only...Its not an option to change anything in...
I am designing one tool, that will make several different parts. There will be one die set (or die base), and 16 different variations of tooling inside that one tool. I need/want to control arrangements at the top or higher level. for instance...see below. I design the parts in FEATURE01 with...
Does anyone have any ideas on showing a component/assembly in multiple positions but only counting them once in the BOM.
I am using reference sets to show the components/assembly in the different positions, but would like to only count them once in the BOM.

Is there a way to set standard snap settings when executing any particular command?
For instance...when I select an ordinate dimension that I need to edit the association, I ALWAYS want the "snap to arc center" and/or the "snap to endpoint" to be active and all others OFF. But for some reason...
Is there a way to set the "change displayed part options" when you go to...Windows -> More -> Options , to what I want and keep it there ? It will hold its setting during a session, but It goes back to the default when you start a new NX session...Thx
