For some reason I have a negative weight for my assembly in the weight column of the assembly navigator. All the parts have materials assigned and report their weight correctly but the total on the assembly is a negative number.

I inserted a parts list and then later I added more parts to my assembly and modified a few parts. Now the new parts show up in the parts list in a different color (darker) with no item number assigned and they are duplicates from existing parts (changed the quantity). Example, I have a part...
Using NX 8.5. I have a large assembly with many views where auto-balloon would not make sense. I have inserted my Parts List, now is there a way to insert single balloons that when I pick the balloon location on the part will put in the corresponding item number from the parts list? I don't...
I need to create an expression that will give me the delta XC YC ZC of a linked point so that I can put that data into the model spreadsheet. The point is linked to part of a kinematic model so will move often and I would like to be able to track the location of the point in the spreadsheet...

Has anyone used this product from Siemens? If so, how does it work? Can you use it with Native UG or do you have to have teamcenter xpress? Not much documentation on the website..

I am using NX6 on 64bit windows OS. How do I enable previews of thumbnails? I don't see them in windows explorer or when I do a file/open in the preview window. In the customer defaults previews are enabled by default.
I noticed that when I click on the properties of a part that the preview...
I want to be able to draw an associative line between two parts in an assembly and when the parts move through-out the arrangements the associative line updates accordingly. I tried to wave link points in the parts but it seems that the linked points and the associative line are only associative...
Is there a way to make certain components hidden lines invisable in a drawing view, sort of like making components not hatch in a section view. I want to see the hidden lines in a view but not the hidden lines in some of the components. I also don't want to do a view dependent edit on these and...
Has anyone out there used the new animator? It looks like it does some things I wished 2004 did (like saving multiple animations), but I am having a lot of trouble learning how to use it (not the most user friendly program) and the help file is not very helpful. I am having trouble with two...
Wondering if anyone else is experiencing problems switching from draft to high quality views in drawings? When I try to change my views to high quality SW kicks me out with the dreaded unhandled error.. When I try to switch to high quality during printing, I get kicked out with no error message...
Has anyone figured out the best way to share toolbox parts?In otherwords, have multiple users on a server building the same database of toolbox parts rather then having each user installing their toolbox into a different folder and building their own database..You know what happens if user 1...
Does anyone know how I could re-order block attributes. The block was created from an autocad block with attributes but the new SW block attributes order is hosed up.
I recently expoded a block in my drawing of a delta symbol. Now the symbol is there and I can not select it to move it or remove it from the drawing. No matter what I try, I can not get rid of it. Did it become sketch entities? It also shows up on the drawing when I print...

Noticed that when printing cylindrical, curved or angled objects that lines are edgey, similar to when lower graphic performance settings are used. Everything else looks fine..Anyone else have this problem?.. Was not like this with 2001plus and I have not changed anything except SW..

When I send an e-drawing to someone the redlining tools are grayed out. The measure is enabled but not the review..Is there a way to allow others to redline an e-drawing?
