    How to create a point with reference as Absolute Work using NXOpen Programming?

    There is a function that maps(or converts) points(in double array format) from one coordinate system to another. Search MapPoint in the soulution center and you should be able to find a sample...

    Mold Wizard Customization & Window Behavior

    Manually, when I take the following steps: Open Nx, new part, modeling. Execute create block command With the create block command open, I execute a measure distance Hit cancel on measure distance, it takes you back to create block command If I was able to capture the functionality that...

    Mold Wizard Customization & Window Behavior

    Is there any way to incorporate a Nx Open .dll within mold wizard? Ideally, to create a new button that would allow program execution without exiting mold wizard? If not, is there a way to execute a Nx Open .dll within another NX window/command that would return to the Nx window/command without...

    Reducing the number of knot points in a curve

    What is the best method of reducing the number of knot points in a curve? Currently, we stroll along the curve and visually look for high density areas. We then split the curve around that area, delete the high density area, and bridge the curve back together. DHuskic Nx9.0

    Extrude with single-sided offset collapsing face

    I am using the Face selection intent to select all the edges of the face highlighted below: If I do a regular extrude normal to the face, and without any offset, here is the result.2. No offset example.png When I start putting in a negative single sided offset, the offset causes the edges...

    Extrude with single-sided offset collapsing face

    Hello, I am attempting to create an extrude with single-sided offset but it is collapsing the face sometimes and only building one of the collapsed regions. Is there any way to force it to build all of the regions or switch which region it builds every time? See attached image for sample NX...

    NX Expression Equal To Component Translation

    We import the components into assemblies via Mold Wizard, and our designers move these components occasionally. We need the translation values for our dimensions that get imported as well. DHuskic Nx9.0

    NX Expression Equal To Component Translation

    I asked this question on behalf of a coworker, some of this is above my head, but this was his response: DHuskic Nx9.0

    NX Expression Equal To Component Translation

    Is there a way to set an expression equal to a component's translation? The information I want connected to the expression would be under Component Properties -> Information. This opens a listing window and under Component Translations, the output looks like something below. I want to create 3...

    Hiding & Shading in Clearance Analysis Browser

    Does anyone know if the Hide/Shade/Wireframe functionality, that a user can typically access after studying an interference and right clicking on the interference, can be somehow accessed without studying any interference's? It would save us a tremendous amount of time we currently have to wait...

    Clearance Analysis False Hard Interferences

    In case anyone is interested, attached is a zip file containing a piece part and some images for my executions. Here are the steps to reproduce my error: To reproduce the steps: 1. Open Nx 2. Open Clearance Analysis Parts.prt without partial loading or lightweight representations 3. Go into...

    Clearance Analysis False Hard Interferences

    I reran the clearance analysis on a subset of parts, but only to isolate some of the ones that were causing issues. This time around, the same component pairs that we giving me New(Hard) interferences before, are now touching as they should be. DHuskic Nx8.5 & Nx9.0

    Clearance Analysis False Hard Interferences

    Cowski, I am using the same version as you. Bigwizz, that is what I am seeing on some components. Others will have a larger penetration depth, but it will be measured as some skewed angle. I'm using the same test as well. DHuskic Nx8.5 & Nx9.0

    Clearance Analysis False Hard Interferences

    Everything is fully loaded and the analysis is set to exact. These False Hard Interferences seem to be New(Touching) interferences but for some reason the analysis labels them otherwise. Problem is when there's upwards of 150-200 Hard interferences, a majority of them appear to be a Touching...

    Clearance Analysis False Hard Interferences

    I'm a little riddled at some of the hard interferences I am receiving as a part of my Clearance Analysis testing. I am testing an assembly that should be a real life representation of our components once they are assembled. I keep getting false hard interferences that have no penetrating...
