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 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...
Hello all,
I have a legacy sketch in a model I am changing in NX 1965. Simple change. All looks good.
I get Sketch is not evaluated. How do I fix that?
Thank you.
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
Does anyone know how to reverse Direction on a curve? There used to be a function for that years ago.
I do some work occasionally where I create mid curves between complex splines. My method requires both curve to have the same direction. I can rebuild one of the splines but that is extra work...
Hello all,
I am adding new section views on a drawing in NX9 and I am getting "subscript" names. See picture. This is a new one for me. I also cant seem to change the name to a dual letter style. e.g. AA,AB,AC.
How do I fix it so I dont get subscript and how to I set it so I can use dual...
Hello all,
I am making an NX9 Artistic Image using the Rough Pencil option. Results look good but I get this awful Blue background. How to I switch the background color to white?
I see sliders for all but background color.
Actually the sliders seem to have no effect either. Do I need a Studio...
Probably a silly question. What is the purpose of the Delete Body command in NX9?
It probably has a good target customer but I saw it and wasn't sure what it was there for. Might be a cool function I am missing. I am just upgrading from NX7.5.
Thanks all!
Hello all,
What is the easiest way to get a flat pattern either curves or surface of a curve mesh type surface in NX?
Its just a surface (not revolved) with some holes in it.
I tried doing it in Sheet Metal but I cant select the surface in that package for some reason.
Thanks...
Does anyone know how to re-sequence PMI after deleting some of them? See attached.
NX adds an identifier to each PMI entity but after you delete some they aren't sequential any more. I had a request to re-sequence them in order but I'm not sure how?
In the attached simple example the PMI are...
Hi all,
I used to be able to Measure Distance in Associative mode and toggle on create line. I believe in past versions the line updated if you changed the model. I think there were 2 options in an expression Measure Distance. One to Create Line and another to Create Points. These also updated...
Does anyone have any good info or links on using PMI in a manufacturing environment? Lessons learned. Best practices. Etc.
I am interested in efficient methods of annotating data, adding specifications and GDT in actual use by mfg.
Maybe there's something on the internets, Twitters n such...
Does anyone know whats up with the Create smart point in UG Open API/C? I get errors when I try and compile any code using this option. It seems there is no support in NX4.
Does anyone have a working code snippet of point routine that they could share if they have solved this?
What I am...
