For several years we've been importing expressions (output from Excel) to drive our models. However, for those years we've had our drawings embedded in the same part files (Teamcenter context). Those drawings also referenced some of the expressions imported into the part file. Now we wish to use...
We use cloning a lot to generate new assemblies that are similiar to, or based on, previous assemblies. During the cloning operation we specify which items are to be retained (i.e. not cloned) and which items are to be created (using a REPLACE NUMBER RULE). HOWEVER, any new items created as part...
Perhaps someone can shed some light on an issue we just encountered. We had a user perform a Save As on a Part Family master in order to create a NEW part family. This was in an effort to break up a large, unwieldy part family into smaller, unique part families. However, the spreadsheet name...

OK, this is driving me bonkers. I am working on an NX9 drawing (9.0.3.4 MP1) and I'd like to create a couple of manual dimensions (i.e. over-ride the text). I successfully managed to create 2 dimensions following the advice in the referenced thread. HOWEVER, I can't create any...
We're looking to begin using Check-Mate on our models, and we're trying to do so step-by-step. One check we'd like to consider is to have Check-Mate locate out-of-date Body Measurements. I've browsed the list of available tests and can't find one that will discover out-of-date Body Measurements...
Hi All,
I am wondering if there's a way to run a search/query in Teamcenter to find any NX drawings/datasets that use a particular drafting pattern. I wanted to correct an error in a pattern and I came to find it was never released. If I make changes to the revision block in the pattern, I'd...
Hi All,
I am often creating sketches that involve arcs and angles where the angle required is dependant on the arc radius. I use a simple formula as follows:
Angle (deg) = Chord Length (in) [÷] .017453 [÷] Radius (in)
I've shown the units in the formula to help explain my issue...
