    Sketch details in part navigator

    I am wondering where the details are... When I click on any feature in the part navigator, like "extrude", "hole", the details tab shows the parameters(start limit, end limit, diameter). But, if I click on a sketch, nothing is shown in the details tab. This used to be the case in earlier...

    upgrading from 2 old dino monitors

    I have two HP 30 " monitors for use with NX (1953 at the moment). I would like to upgrade since the oldest one is from 2007 and, even if both are HP, I can't get the dispay settings the same (contrast, colortemp, the like). Now I have the option of replacing both monitors at the same time with...

    Opening drawing files of part files in assembly, master model approach

    I have an assembly, containing about 40 parts. Each part has it's own drawing file attached via the master-model aproach. Is there a way to open all the drawing parts at once (just like all the parts are opened ) when opening the assembly ? So opening assembly results in opening part1, part2 and...

    Bearings for rotating titanium cylinder

    Hi All, I am designing a small device for a scientific experiment. Goal is to study the behaviour of polymer mixtures under certain loads. As you can see in the att. I made a concept design in which a cylinder is rotating in a cup. The radial play is 0.2 mm. Max rpm is 15000, although I...

    NX9 only 64 bit?

    I am using NX8 at the moment. Found no bugs so far and runs smoothly. Constraint navigator is a real improvement. Good product. Now, I am not sure were I read it (release notes ?), but in versions 9 and later, only 64 bit architecture is supported. This will have an effect on our hardware and...

    Hi All, Can anyone tell me if and where I can change the size of the wcs icon in the modelling display? And also, the size of the wcs handles (after double click for wcs dynamics). I have two workstations, and on one workstation the icon/handles are very small.I checked all settings and to me...

    Associative centermark NX7.5

    Hi All, Somehow I am losing associativity for my centermark. See attachment. Going to modelling, returning to drafting, update view: associativity is lost (not using master model concept atm). Or, in drafting: Add centermark, update view: associativity is lost. Searched the forum, no hints...

    Designing a mirror system in NX7.5

    Hi All, For a space project I am designing a (concept) optical system. One of the optical sub systems is a so-called offner relay imaging system. It consists of 2 concave mirrors, see attached picture. The surface of the secondary mirror is located at the focal point F of the primary, at a...

    constant length spline NX7.5

    I need help on the following issue: I am creating several tubes in a large assembly. The tubes are defined by splines and the splines are defined by end points / tangency control, G3, the usual... Now, I would like to move some endpoints as a result of changes made in the assembly. Since the...

    Components visible in sequence view

    Hi All, I have a question about sequencing. I have a very large assembly and would like to apply sequencing to just a part of it. I know it is possible to show/hide components in a view (pre-defined or custom). For example, I defined a view top_cooling, showing just the cooling components. Is...

    Hi All, Before posting this I looked everywhere for an answer, but nope...Some hints, it might be a corrupt license, but I am not sure. So here it is: I am having troubles running NX7.5 on 1 of my workstations. I have 2 workstations running NX6 (before that NX2, NX4), academic bundle. Never had...
