    This just started happening: During login to Teamcenter Navigator, the following FILE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM error message appears: "File Client Cache Is Not Enabled", which I OK. After I launch NX, these messages pop up: 1) "Error detected during FMS initialization. The FCC client was unable to...

    Deformable Part problem

    I have defined a deformable part, which I am trying to deform in an assembly context four assy levels above the part model. However, when I try to do this, I get the error message: "Unable to deform because deformed parents of component exists" Can anyone tell me what exactly this means, and...

    Export to STEP problem

    I am using NX5 in native mode. The File>Eport>STEP203 command fails to produce a correct .stp file. Apparently it can no longer find the source component files of my assembly. I set search folders in NX long ago using File>Options>Assembly Load Options... and recently checked them. Assemblies...

    I-DEAS PDF Printer problems

    I have I-deas 12NX (Artisan). Used to be able to generate PDF file using I-DEAS PDF Printer as printer selection. For some reason, I always had to launch Adobe Acrobat Distiller first (AcroDist.exe), with PrintOptimized as Job Option selection. Recently, this stopped working. The print job...

    Teamcenter able to control any file format?

    Dumb question regarding Teamcenter: If we have various kinds of cad files other than NX (such as Autocad dwgs or SolidWorks models) that require revision control, can Teamcenter be configured to manage them effectively? -thomasleeclark

    NX Define Deformable Part is killing me

    I cannot seem to get Deformable Parts to work. After defining the part with deformable features in Modeling, when I go to the assembly and attempt to Deform it, I get ALL KINDS of grief, such as: "An attempt was made to associate an object with a second other part" (???), and this...

    How import NX assembly into Teamcenter

    When I try to import an existing NX assembly into a new .prt model file, it says this may not be done. You kidding me??? A NATIVE NX assembly and component model files cannot be brought from a remote directory into a Teamcenter-launched session of NX5? That can't be right. Help - thomasleeclark

    Changing Parts List component attributes

    I've tried to solve this on my own, and I give! When I create an assembly, even though I add components in my preferred order, the parts list always reflects a different Item ordering. Apparently, the CALLOUT properties attribute controls this column. When I manually change the values of this...

    Assembly and component files directory

    Dumb question: When using NX5 without Teamcenter, MUST an assembly file and its component model files all be in the same directory? This seems to be the case, but it's really inconvenient. If component .prt files can reside in a different directory, how do I set this up? -thomasleeclark

    Bring NX templates into Teamcenter

    Stumped! I have created numerous drawing and sheet templates using NX5 "native". How do I import these templates into the Teamcenter environment? I don't want to have to create them all over again! (login: infodba) -thomasleeclark

    Need TrueType font or fill existing

    Is there a way to import a TrueType font, like Arial, into NX5? Or is there a way to fill one of the existing fonts, like futura? -thomasleeclark
