Hi we are currently transitioning to teamcenter however we have some legacy native NX and local settings to our (Canada) location. Is there a way to add a watermark or particular colour theme to native NX to make it obvious that the local settings are in use? We get new users that open things...

I've seen at another division they had plotter setup to export a drawing file to dxf. Our customer contract specify we need to provide autocad dxf files for all drawings. Unfortunately the person whom setup this plot is no longer with the company. Any help with this would be great. I do see the...
Dumb question here but I can't seem to find the what toggle was switched. I have two sub assemblies and I'm trying to join them to a larger assembly and now I can only select the component. No faces or edges are being selected. The filter is set to "No Selection Filter" and "Entire Assembly"...

Is there a way to correct a drawing created by a user who didn't understand the master model concept? What I have is part file which contains a large assembly and the user switched to drafting and created a drawing. This file is hard to work with because of the size of the assembly and the...
Hi I was updating a drawing. One of my colleagues had made which reference sets were used to change machined and raw plate states. I prefer the arrangement method and have updated the model in this method. The way I build my parts is I title the main component the master and then place two empty...
Is it possible to lock down the location we can save to in native NX? We've had some users inadvertently save items on their desktop pcs which doesn't help when sharing files :) Our library is on a networked U:\ drive. Thought there may be a control in the ugii_envir.bat file.

I looking into possibly using NX to assign drawing numbers to our components. Our current drawing number system is display in a way which makes finding components easy. Example of a current number would be 25D1049CM. 25D- stand so the drawing size(D sized sheet). The next 4 digits 1049- stands...
Hello, We have a few SDRC i-deas seats still running in our company and they are used to run some programs to develop our parts from data gathered on a spec sheet. These programs develop drawings and 3d models. My question is there anyway to take this and transfer to NX or are we to start from...

Check this image out. The green part with the teeth cut in it should be under the white part but only pieces of the part in drafting are hidden. Very odd.
