Hi all. I have a new customer who is on Visi.
I’m planning on exporting a stp file at the end. My question is is there any way to export with attributes so when they open with visi they can see material type, supplier etc. Or is there a better way to translate in this situation?
It looks like...
Hi.
I searched but didn't find anything on this.
I am very familiar with the Mirror Assembly command. What I'm wondering is if there's a way to mirror a large assembly (with multiple sub-assemblies) via the command prompt or any other method so that it is it's own independent assembly...
Hi all. What is the easiest way to convert a sketch to un-parametrized lines and arcs? I have to be missing something. Right now, I'm copying the sketch curves to another layer and then deleting the sketch.
Thanks.
Hi. When using edit object display in NX 9, I can't get the colors to adhere to the component while out in the assembly context.
If I'm in an assembly and hit edit display, I select the object (component) and choose a color. "Apply to all selected faces" and "apply changes to owning part" are...
Hi all. I'm experiencing some strange behavior here. After working for a while, usually on surface intensive things, my selection rectangle dissapears when I go to box select something. The selected items still highlight, but I have to guess where the rectangle is. Also, while this is going on...
Hi all. I am running autoballoon and have changed the callout value so that the columns are referencing a part attribute "Detail_Number". Some of the components are getting ballooned properly while others have a OC in the balloon. (See Pic)
Why aren't those components getting the detail number...
Hi. I have been struggling with this long enough!
My problem is this. I have a "Fastener Library" with the different faces of the fasteners color coded to whichever customer standards. (different libraries for different customers) Screws, dowels and jackscrews. The screws work fine but for...
Hi. Did something change on 7.5?
I am converting an assembly from mm to in. using the convert part utility.
at the prompt I type in ug_convert_part -in -d C:\0-Main\Designs\customer\1756\1756 Design
I get an error saying that there are too many parts in the directory. This is how I have...
Hi. I am noticing something that I don't think was happening on older versions of NX. On 7.5 when I open components and subassemblies and then do some work, I go to do a save all and it looks like a lot of updating is going on before it actually begins the save. My Assembly should already be up...
Hi. I am currently running NX7.5 (along with 3 & 6)on a 32 bit Dell Precision M6400 with XP as the OS. Quadro M3700 graphics card.
I need to go to 64 bit. Does anyone know if my M6400 will run ok for NX7.5 on Windows 7 - 64 bit system? A guy at Seimans said that my graphics card is not...
Hi. I am transitioning to 7.5 from 6.
I am noticing that sometimes, for whatever reason, my linked subtracts won't update when I move the parent component. (Fastener tools are linked in associative checked on and then subtracted)
I will move the fastener, and the linked subtract will not...
Hi. I need to make an id stamp with a part number. The customer wants it to be sharp on the stamping end and tapered for strength.
I cant seem to figure out how to do this. I am trying different types of text and then extruding with draft, but so far have not found anything that works all that...
Hi. I am working on a dowel part family in NX3 (to bring in to my NX6 library). I am trying to convert it from inches to mm via the external unit conversion program. For some reason it is failing to convert and not telling me why. I checked all my expressions and can't seem to find the problem...
Hi. I am in the process of switching to 3 from 6. I have this issue where all of my links go dead when I move a sub assembly and I cant get them to update.
I have a dieshoe assembly from my library and it is expression driven. Once I start adding fasteners and whatnot if I have to move the...
Ok. I did a search and did not find the specifics on what I am looking for.
I am currently using NX3 & 6.
If a customer gives me their own .cdf file, what is the way I want to implement it for the entire assembly. I have tried 2 different ways. First , I tried pointing UG to it using customer...
I have my partslist made and when I hit auto balloon it is giving me some wierd symbols inside the balloon. Can I make it so autoballoon uses the component name values. I give my details their number in the component name column of the assembly navigator and these values are what I need in the...
Hi. I looked in the archives and did not see a thread on this. I am on 6 switching from NX3. I change expressions in a part and it messes with the reference sets. I make a "body" reference set for everything, and I have the reference set set to body, but for some reason, a toolbody from a...
Hi. I am wondering if there is a way to get a block size attribute to automatically update when I change the block parameters.
Basically, I am making a new component and creating a block on layer 1. I am giving the file an attribute called "description" and I want the value to be the block...
Hi. I looked for something on this in the search box and did not see what I was looking for. Does anyone know how to point me to someone who can write / sell me some custom apps for NX6?
Mainly related to adding fasteners on the fly while doing the subtracts and getting BOM attributes filled...
Hi. I am still getting used to NX6 as well as trying to get used to doing things without these user functions I have in NX3.
I have the partslist and auto baloon all figured out (I think), but when all is done, I don't see a way to rename all the files to the baloon numbers. In other words, is...
